*** Ooops my mistake. After fishing out the cpu boxes it simply reads
Pentium III (no mention of Celeron anywhere) .. been using this
configuration on three systems now
and they're working fine. As I
said, no problem with a 2.2.xx series kernel but no matter what 2.4
release I use - no good. I compile kernels all the time and the 2.4 SMP
just hasn't worked on this system (can't try it on another since these are
the only dual processors we have around). Booting single processor with
2.4 works fine.

*** I'm sorry I don't follow you here. It hangs on SMP boot, works fine on
single processor boot (linux-up). If I immediately boot back to SMP it
hangs. This happens on all our dual pentium celeron machines.

*** The motherboard is a CUV4X-D Dual socket 370, Apollo Pro133a
ChipSet. Here's the output of /proc/cpuinfo (when booted with a 2.2.19
kernel) both processors are exactly the same:  Thanks everyone for taking
the time to respond - it is always appreciated (regardless of the
outcome)...
