On a different machine similar with 2.6.22.13-0.3-default, and a seperate /boot
partition, installing virtualbox package, did create a weak-updates directory.
If there's something odd about the installation on the box with -bigsmp kernel,
I'd at least expect things to fail in a way that attracts attention, from YaST
it looks like all installation steps succeeded.
So I use same 32bit OS on an AMD64 capable chip, as the box that "works" has
Athlon MP 32bit SMP.
