I'm new to UNIX and even newer to Linux. My employer wants me to install
RedHat 6.0 on a Quad Pentium Pro 200 MHz machine. It installed well, but
it only recognizes, so far as I can tell, only one of the CPUs. So now I
have the following questions:

1) How can verify how many CPU's are actually being used? I have tried
top and "cat /proc/cpuinfo". Both seem to indicate only one CPU.

2) gnome-linuxconf indicates there are two kernels in the system, one
for SMP. How do I know which one actually loaded?

LILO linux configurations
linux           /dev/sdb1       /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.5-15smp
linux-up        /dev/sdb1       /boot/vmlinuz-2.2.5-15

Uh, does the "linux-up" mean what I fear it does?

3) Are there any ways to boot the system, in case the non-SMP kernel is
being used, so that I can find out why the default SMP kernal was
rejected? Is there a log file I can check?

Since I have also installed Windows 2000 Server on the same computer
(first drive, second partition; linux is on second drive), I currently
boot the system from a floppy disk. 

Thanks,
Kevin Nelson
