Matt and Paul, Thank you for the information about boot.conf, using that will enable me to keep the uniprocessor and multiprocessor versions of the kernel distinct.
I think I was led astray initially by this comment in Section 8.12 in the FAQ: A separate SMP kernel, "bsd.mp", is provided with the install file sets, which can be selected at install time. It is suggested that you test booting this kernel before renaming it to "bsd" to make it your default kernel. See: http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq8.html#SMP Perhaps the FAQ should be modified to tell people to change boot.conf instead of renaming the kernel files, to prevent others from overloading /bsd and the default kernel. Thanks for your help!
