Thanks to everyone who replied with suggestions (and corrected my shabby
subject-line editing:), here's some more info for those who requested it-
Bios:
Only MP-related field that I can find is to choose 1.1 or 1.4 mp spec. I'm
using 1.1 since that's what dmesg says (clever, eh?) but i get the same
result with either. Boot screen message does not specify 2 processors,
message reads "CPU = Pentium Pro 180 Mhz". Seems to me like that should
tell me it finds 2 CPU's, but, again, I'm not sure. I haven't seen it
working on this machine yet to know if it's wrong.
h/w specs:
Micron Millenia PRO2
W6LI-rev.b M/B 2x180 PPro CPU
PhoenixBIOS v 4.05
2 IDE h/d's, I have no idea what kind (the kind that work, so you don't
have to think about them)
Diamond Stealth 2000 4Meg
built in sound, don't know, don't care, don't use

...on and on et nauseum. That seems to be the relevant stuff. In any case,
I don't think it's a kernel misconfig issue, I think it's got to do with
the hardware and/or bios. Anyone remember doing anything funky with the
setup, or needing to set jumpers that aren't mentioned in Microns doc's,
or even what the BIOS boot screen should say?
Again, TIA-
