i expected this to be the case on my laptop and was actually surprised to find that it did install an SMP kernel (the laptop is a dual-core).
Interesting... I installed 3 times on my system and got the same results 3 times. My CPU is an AMD X2 3800+ (dual core). When I install SUSE it correctly IDs it as needing an 64 bit SMP kernel. I tried Ubuntu from the LinuxFormat magazine, a downloaded Ubuntu and a downloaded Kubuntu. In all *buntu instances I got the i386 kernel. Weird.
The kubuntu pages has different links for the 64bit processors. http://ftp.wayne.edu/linux_distributions/ubuntu/kubuntu/6.06/ -- _____________________________________ John Andersen
