Title: 5.1.2 cannot detect SMP on dual p-pro
Post by: Isaac Huff on June 16, 2002, 12:45:13 AM

Hi,
I have been repeatedly trying to install SME 5.1.2 on an IBM PC-365 dual pentium pro machine.  Win2k detects and uses both cpu's with no problems.  I have also done a standard RedHat 7.3 install using the smp kernel, and both processors are used without any problems.  SME will only install the uniprocessor version, no matter how much I try.  I have attempted this on two separate machines.  I am sure it is not installing the smp stuff, I have checked the packages and also the information in /proc.  I also tried 4.1.2 and that did not work either.

Is there anything I can do to force SMP mode?  Any suggestions at all?

Thanks,
Isaac

I have the same problem with a dual processor Compaq Prosignia 740 - it never detects the dual processor even though other operating systems can. I never got a solution, so half my server is sitting idle!
