Is there any other way than running a 2cpu machine and installing FC5 on it (hopefully since there are 2 cpus, smp kernel will be installed). On that note, has anyone successfully booted a 2cpu machine? Maybe I am doing something wrong, (as I have said in my previous post) I am not able to get a 2cpu machine working. Is there some other forum I should be posting this on?
