Bug#228252: kernel-image-2.4.*-386 needs apic
Hi,
I've done some tests, and I think that kernel-image-2.4.*-386 needs apic
option ( kernel-image-2.4.18-bf2.4 does it ).
Computer : bi-xeon with HT.
2.4.18-386 :
No Processors: line
2.4.18-686 :
Processors: 2, but only one in /proc/cpuinfo
2.4.24-686-smp-thomas4 :
Processors: 4, and 4 in cpuinfo
2.4.24-386-thomas1 ( 386 with APIC ) :
Processors: 1, and 1 in cpuinfo.
So, if you enable APIC in 386, then if there is a line "Processors:",
this is a smp computer.
Thanks.
