You looked in the right place. /proc/cpuinfo would list 4 processors if
it saw them all

The first name the "Lilo name" is the keyword you can type to lilo
at boot time to boot the kernel you choose. It should default to "linux"

Thats the uniprocessor kernel. So you can boot uniprocessor if you wish.

After boot look at "dmesg|more" or in /var/log/messages.

Does NT5^WWindows 2000^W2001 see the 4 processors ?
