Re: enabling dual processor in redhat 7.3

Okay the easiest way that I can think of is if you boot and you are using GRUB 
then the it will say 2.4.xxx-smp somewhere, but realize that if you were using 
only one processor previously then it would be the case that you have a non-smp 
kernel since you added the processor later. So you may have to get to your 
RedHat disk and locate the kernel on that disk that says smp install it and 
up2date it as I am sure there must be a kernel update to that one.
