no smp kernel available yet ?!
Hi,
I just bought a new PC (based on Intel I5 750 processor) -- it's not yet
here, but it will soon. So, I looked for some multicore 64bit processors
Debian portage, but founded none except ia64 with a monocore default
kernel. So, I will have to compile a new kernel (with SMP support).
In the past (8-10 years ago), I already tried to compile the kernel to
add Amiga filesystems support (I still have ~512Mo of
datas/sources/etc... to get back from an old scsi disk), but the new
kernel never works after install/reboot. So, after 3-4 tries, I left.
Multicore cpus are here since a few years, so why don't you set any
multicore kernels/distributions ready to use ? Strange :\
Best regards,
Frantz. (zebulon.biniou.net)
