Hi,

assumming that your hardware can boot a COMPLETELY GENERIC UP kernel, build
an SMP kernel that is COMPLETELY GENERIC, ie start with GENERIC and add ONLY:

options         SMP                     # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel
options         NCPU=2                  # number of CPUs
options         APIC_IO                 # Symmetric (APIC) I/O
options         SMP_INVLTLB             # 

boot -v and -s, see how far you get...
