In the generic kernel all you need to do is uncomment out 2 lines that refer to SMP. Then after you build and install the kernel when it boots you should see it bring CPU 1 2 3 online CPU 0 is the boot cpu.

I have looked in the Handbook and there seems to be no reference. I am also subscribed to the BSD SMP list and this list seems to be very advanced, way above my head so far. Any suggestions as to where to find instructions on how to install on a multiprocessor machine? Thanks. Charles S.
