The current package set for uniprocessor can be determined by: rpm -qa | grep kernel.*std-up Then we can either install every corresponding std-smp package (with e.g. synaptic) or think whether we have that particular softmodem or SCSI controller. :) The safe side is installing kernel-*-std-smp*.rpm, that should be done by installing kernel-complete-std-smp which pulls them in via dependencies. > Without making you write an entire instruction manual, are > there some steps I sould be aware of if I was to try and help > my co-worker install Compact 2.3 on his system? Well it should install anyways, but driving a single processor on a multiprocessor system is a shame so probably after UP install we get back there with SMP details. Again -- sorry, this just shouldn't have been. *sigh* -- ---- WBR, Michael Shigorin ------ Linux.Kiev http://www.linux.kiev.ua/
