that having said, i've implemented & tested the O(1) scheduler purely on
SMP. But the UP port took about 5 minutes, and the UP kernel worked on the
first bootup. In your case it might make sense to first test UP and then
go over to SMP. If there is some fundamental problem it's much easier to
debug & fix it on UP.
