SMP kernel for UP2000 833MHZ 2-cpus



Does anyon know why all versions of kernels (2.4.4 -- 2.4.13-pre)
cannot boot on alpha with UP2000 2-cpu (of both 833MHZ and 750MHZ versions) ?
                                 =====

(Most recent version of kernel which could boot on this system
is 2.4.2-pre3.)

(kernels with no smp option can boot without any problem. )
