That kernel works in novideo mode, but doesn't seem to do anything with the
second processor.
/proc/cpuinfo shows the cpu as 7450 with Altivec which is correct, but only
shows one CPU.
I poked around for an smp version in that directory but didn't hit paydirt.
Unfortunately I can't see what files are there.
Is there an SMP binary, or a source rpm?
If there is one on the 2.1 CD, that gives me the excuse to get out and buy
it.
