Hi, all guys.
Maybe this question should not be posted here, but if any
one of you have experience on this, please give me some advice.
I have built a LFS+BLFS system on a IA32(Pentium M) computer
and it runs fine. Now I also want to LFS+BLFS on another
computer with Pentium D 945 CPU with two cores. I have tried
to copy what I built on Pentium M computer to the Pentium D
computer with a little modification(make it bootable on that
computer), and it was able to work. But I could only see one
core from /proc/cpuinfo. My questions are:
1. If I use this system in this way, is it true that only half
of the Pentium D CPU is working? What is the performance in this
situation, comparing to the situation using x86_64 architecture?
2. If I want both of two cores to work, is it necessary for me
to rebuild the LFS+BLFS from scratch using x86_64 architecture?
Or only need I rebuild the kernel?

Best Regargs,
Zhiming Wu
