Hello, > Is there any harm to running a SMP kernel on uni processor boxen ? Yes. You may be a little dissappointed when the machine does not boot up ;) Better stick with the standard non-smp kernel if you don't want to chance it. If you're feeling lucky though, try it rebooting with the smp kernel. If it doesn't work, then, on reboot do the following: When you see this prompt: Hit [Enter] to boot immediately, or any other key for command prompt. Booting [kernel] in 9 seconds... hit any key, then do: unload kernel load kernel.GENERIC // or load kernel.old, depends on your situation boot -s -- +--------------------------------------------------------------+ | Welat xwe ava nake, dest bidin hevdu, pist nedin tu dijminî | | Riya azadiyê ne hêsan e, hêviya xwe bernedin, dema me | | nêzîk e. | | | | Hevaltî bi kesên du rû nekin, hevaltî bi hevdu ra bikin | | Ne ji hevaltiya wan kesên pêxwas û rû dirêj, ne bi wan | | kesên xwînperest, ne jî ji yên din. | | | | -$êrêciya Kurdistanî | +--------------------------------------------------------------+ translation provided on request: sereciya@kurdistan.ath.cx
