So in your case the installation system has detected a dual core, which to my intention is not the same as a dual processor if you look at the motherboard. The submitter of the original question sees only one processor in the system.
A dual core are two processors in _one_ unit, but a dual processor system are _two_ units or am I totally wrong with this.
The SMP kernel gets installed even on single-CPU Pentium4 systems if HT is enabled in BIOS. Only during installation itself a non-smp is used. Cheers -e -- Eberhard Moenkeberg (emoenke@gwdg.de, em@kki.org)
