You can use the kernel-image-2.4.19-686-smp package. To compile your
modules, install kernel-headers-2.4.19-686-smp and specify _this_ headers as
kernel source when compiling modules.

Well, you have to change lilo.conf and reinstall lilo to make use of it.
Though, expect trouble when using non-SMP compiled modules with
SMP kernels.
