We just fixed an smp bug for virtio (also triggered by single processor with ACPI multiprocessor HAL). We'll publish a new binary tomorrow. The reason you see multiple cpus although there is only one is that we expose the maximum number in the bios. The system is actually uses the required number so this behavior is ok. > -- Yunhong Jiang > > > > > -- > > Any sufficiently difficult bug is indistinguishable from a feature. > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by the 2008 JavaOne(SM) Conference > Don't miss this year's exciting event.
