Thanks James.. This box to be upgraded is administered remotely, so i dont
have console access in case things mess up. Will linux still boot if there's
a second CPU yet it isnt compiled to support SMP? Conversely, can i compile
it wth smp without the second cpu yet installed?
thanks for your assistance.
