Yes FreeBSD fully supports the dual Athlon. I tested FreeBSD 4.3 on a Tyan Thunder dual Athlon 1.2 GHz DDR system. It runs beautifully -- compiling the entire FreeBSD source code in under 30 minutes! The AMD APIC is *perfectly* compliant with the MPSPEC. In fact, the AMD MP motherboards are better than most Intel ones for compliance. This system is my preferred system for FreeBSD development and I highly recommend it.
