i found the problem.... as we moved from Beta1 to Beta2 we used the same auto_inst.cfg file. In order for mandrake to correctly figure out and configure the correct kernel all kernel "options" must be installed. That means that in the package list kernel, kernel-smp, and kernel-enterprise must be in the list. The problem is with the "new" mandrake way of naming kernel packages. "kernel" is now "kernel-<version>-?mdk" and kernel-smp is "kernel-smp-<version>-?mdk" etc etc. So everytime a new Beta comes our or I update cooker I have to go in and hand edit the package list to be correct.... Anyhow... Maybe there is a better way to make the # of CPU code / how much memory work? -- Bryan Whitehead SysAdmin - JPL - Interferometry Systems and Technology Phone: 818 354 2903 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
