"Boot cpunumber=0x0" is correct, this says that it is booting off CPU #0,
ie the 1st CPU.
here's my dmesg output, note that the first 3 lines only
appear because I modified machdep.c to print them after
/var/log/messages was active (default prints too early):

I would hate to think Intel can't make an Intel SMP compliant
motherboard. Is this particular board known to have ever run
an SMP OS? Can you read the s-spec of the chips? this is a 3
digit number starting with SX,SK,S?. I believe I earlier wrote:
> I am using it with 2 P5 133mHz parts, type SU022
which is wrong, I am using 2 SY022 chips (according to my
notes of a call with the vendor, the chips are buried too
deep in the system to check right now)
