Sorry code posted above with
[GIANT-LOCKED] is from log-messages on another AMD motherboard "T series TA790GX" that runs 8.1 - 9.0 perfectly from day one, so don't get confuse from this point. Sorry about that but this mistake just paided-off.
Check this out: Here's the complete log-message from the Gigabyte mother-board running Phenom X4-3200 ... Suprize again... notice there is no
[GIANT-LOCKED] or
even the word lock in this file like it is in the non-gigabyte AMD board with the word(LOCK) I posted above... This along should tell us something.
conspiracy is not the issue. No offence, but that a wikipedia you posted and not the actual FreeBSD documentation which like I said "lack in technical details", and the user have been trained very well to defend that over the years. Need I post the thread that band technical questions at
www.freebsd.org forum or should I keep it on the hush-hush .. to make more friends .. to get more help. I rather pay the consequences and teach myself than to be a YES man, even for pay.
options ADAPTIVE_GIANT is missing from current 9.0. Don't take my word, just download FreeBSD-AMD64 current and compare GENERIC with older versions.
My questions was;
Where is it or what has it been replace with?
My statement was;
You'll never find it in FreeBSD documentation.
My reason was;
To save my date future and sanity. I don't like surprised
That's my story and I'm sticking to it coppers!
Anyway I see
NO LOCK in this file.
Thanks BSDfan666, but you can't ever know the problem or help me with-out using the same/model Mother-Boards (GA-***GPA), build in the back alleys of the HONG-KONG blackmarkets. But you can put 2+2 together just by comparing what I just wrote. It's a higher-up problem and THIS IS PROOF of the beginnings of every-machine and every-OS for itself. No more standard, ever... Now you get your FBSD in 464 flavors. Just make sure you pick the correct one to install or kaBoom ... with no-refund for hardware out the cracker-jack box. Like I said, lucky for me, I'm only using these GIGABYTES for my home network routers, servers and such, mainly to gain some hands-on experience. Being an over-priced, over-kill for such a small operation is not an issue to me .. but how about other user and the future of FBSD. This is one sure way to take BSD out the game (desktop), leaving only LINUX and Windows in the picture.
I guest it time to do my LINUX-C++ HW FINALS since my BSD degree is doom to die. Just kidding

FREEBSD-9 is sooo cool. Now shown here but I notice that my SMP in order every boot on ALL my AMD machines. After 3 or 4 reboots of an new install you get this 99.9% so far. Once could have slipped by me I think.
SMP: AP CPU #1 Launched!
SMP: AP CPU #2 Launched!
SMP: AP CPU #3 Launched!
I been watching that and re-boot syncer being out of sequence forever and now it's fixed. It's the kind of thing only someone like me who has nothing better to do would notice. That's why I don't know jack. All I ever done was to try to find ways to
bench-mark something.
If more or all mach spec's are needed, just let me know, than you can do the real math.
..
..
Again, even without the "options ADAPTIVE_GIANT", that may be now be build-in or replaced by something like the new "tick-less kernel" ... just remember, FreeBSD-AMD 8.1 thru 9.0 current may run perfect on other mother-boards like my "T series TA790GX" but all functions may not work on newer mother-boards like:
Board-1 "Gigabyte GA-890GPA-UD3H"
Board-2 "Gigabyte GA-880GA-UD3H"
because even the mother-board can screwed things up by changing the rules or in the BIOS to help the all-mighty-Windows. This is a thing that the FreeBSD developers must start looking into. It is out of our hands. PcBSD install will work, but the only thing I'm going to miss is the easy cut-and-paste in FreeBSD terminal mode until things get worse in the future. If I would have had a heads-ups about a darn MB, I would have two new "T series" right now
