Was the patch supposed to also fix the lockup bug in SMP? I just tried 2.1.63
on my Tyan TomcatIII w/ 2 p133's and it died when I threw the code at it. I
do get the message stating that the Pentium lockup bug was detected. I
vaguely remember someone posting something about SMP and the Pentium lock-up
bug... but I don't remember much more than that.

Configuration: Tyan Tomcat III, 2xp133, 128M, all 3 IDE drives and 1 IDE
CDROM. Latest Awards BIOS 4.01
