The machine can see both the cpus when it starts up, but kernel fails to do so. I am using 5.4-Release. In the kernel configuration file I have this parameter defined already. options SMP Kernel compiles with no errors. However, after the boot dmesg shows only cpu0. additional cpu is not listed. I tried options like NCPU=2 or APIC_IO. They are rejected as being invlaid options. Could you please tell me how I can make a new kernel to run with multiple cpus. I am posting this email because I could not find any document to help me further. Many thanks, Turker Dundar
