   I had issues running eCS 1.2MR with the SMP pack on a Dual Xeon system; I    
   ended up having to drop back to the uni-processor kernel to get it to be    
   stable.  I'm not positive that it was OS/2's fault, as that system died    
   shortly after that change was made.  I intended to attempt getting that    
   machine going again, but ended up having to scavenge the power supply from it    
   to fix another machine.   
      
   At some point I will replace the power supply and see if I can get it to run    
   again, but it's really low on the priority list at the moment.  I am testing    
   ArcaOS in a VM, and will probably replace eCS 2.2 beta on my OS/2 BBS machine    
   shortly.
