I was able to turn off smp by following the steps below:

1) go to the kernel source directory
2) type "make menuconfig"
3) Disable the option "Symmetric multi-processing support" inside the
"Processor Type and features  --->" menu item
4) Save the kernel configuration
5) type "make clean"
6) type "make dep"
7) type "make bzImage"
8) move the new kernel "bzImage" into your boot directory and make all your
adjustments (lilo or grub etc...)
9) type "make clean" again
10) type "make modules"
11) type "make modules_install"
12) reboot...
