Re: Two processors---

Yes.  there's an option in the source where you either defince SMP or set
it to true - I don't remember exactly, checking
"/usr/src/Documentation/smp.tex"...  Looks like you've gotta define SMP
somewhere...  OK, there's a line real close to the top of the makefile:

# For SMP kernels, set this. We don't want to have this in the config file
# because it makes re-config very ugly and too many fundamental files depend
# on "CONFIG_SMP"
#
# NOTE! SMP is experimental. See the file Documentation/SMP.txt
#
# SMP = 1
#
# SMP profiling options
# SMP_PROF = 1

Looks like this is what you need to uncomment.  friends that have used
this claim it works real nice.  As soon as I find a multiple PPro MB... :)
