RE: [PLUG] Multi-Processor Support -- Working


In case anyone cares, once the install was completed everything seem to
be fine.  Found both CPU's just fine, and had installed an SMP kernel.

The drives a still a little odd.  I refused to replace the old partition
table, but it would reuse the partitions already created.  I couldn't
find a way around it with any of the various tools I tried (from both
the SuSE and KNOPPIX disks), but the old scheme wasn't too bad so I'm
working with it.  Only problem is that I couldn't setup a RAID, but
it'll do.

Thanks again for the guidance.
Aaron

uname -a is pretty informative.  if you want to know if your running
kernel supports smp, cat /proc/cpuinfo.

i imagine it would be a matter of installing the appropriate rpm's...
