Is anybody using the Tyan S1672 (Tacoma) motherboard with parity RAM
with FreeBSD?

We have a couple of these here, and they work fine as long as we only
configure normal parity checking in the BIOS. As soon as we turn on
ECC, we start getting mysterious crashes etc. We'd like to hear about
other experiences with this board. Thanks in advance!
