You could simply install the -smp kernel if it hasn't been already (rpm -qa | 
grep kernel) and make that the LILO default if it doesn't claim that by 
default. AFAIK, running an SMP kernel on a uniprocessor is harmless, too.

I installed 8.2 and 9.0 on a dual-processor Intel motherboard with only one 
CPU, and got the -enterprise kernel by default, both times. I plugged a 
second CPU in and the result was two penguins on boot and no observable drop 
in responsiveness when Windows buzzed inside a Win4Lin session.
