it actually was set in:  /etc/lilo.conf:

|
|
       append="noht ramdisk_size=32768 console=rcons0,38400"
        root=/dev/sda1

....

question:

1.  If I edit this file to remove the "noht" argument
2.  re-run:

/sbin/lilo

3.  will this ensure that everytime this server boots,
hyperthreading will be set?  Are there any other files
that this could be set?

thanks again,
