The SMP circuitry was 'disabled' by Intel (on Celeron processors). There are
motherboards and 'sockets' that 'enable' the circuitry...

I was going through my Mandrake archives and saw your posting about a
dual-celeron system.  Tell me you're serious!  I was told that all the SMP
circutry was removed from the celerons and only P3 & P2 chips would run in
parallel.  Is anyone else running a system like this?

Yep I'm running it on an ABit BP6 w 2 Celeron 433's

Also installs a uni processor kernel so you can boot either SMP or UP.
