"I'm using Storm on a dual processor machine (dual Pentium Pro).  I need to
recompile the kernel for SMP.  Does anyone have any helpful suggestions on where
I can find detailed instructions for recompiling the kernel while keeping the
current configuration (only adding SMP capability)?  Is it like compiling the
kernel for Debian, or are there some Stormix-specific catches?"
------------
Unpack your sources to anydirectory, I suggest your home dir. (Lets call that new 
source dir linux).  Copy the file /boot/config-2.2.16-storm-ide to your linux 
directory and name it .config (cp /boot/config-2.2.16-storm-ide ~/linux/.config).  
*note: the /boot/config-2.2.16-storm-ide file was called something different in 
versions of stormix older than 2.06.  I thin it was called storm.config or something 
like that, (it will have storm and config in the name).  Now cd into the ~/linux dir 
and make xconfig.  The .config file is automatically loaded, so just make the changes 
that you want.  I think all you will have to do is check SMP.  I won't go into detail 
on building a kernel/modules and installation, you can find that anywhere on web.

Good Luck.
