Unfortunately, you may have to.  I don't think your cpus are supported

You can try and see if either 2.4.27-2-386 or 2.6.8-2-386 works for you
as a first step.  If those don't work, then its unlikely the
smp-counterpart would work.  Better to know that in advance before going
through the rebuild effort.

First of all, thanks for answering so soon  :-)

I already have it running under a Debian precompiled 2.4.27-2-386 kernel, and It doesn't crash or something like that, but, once I saw what showed /proc/cpu, I realise the 2 processor wasn't working, well, that's what I assumed, please correct me if I'm wrong, but, If I don't use either a SMP precompiled kern, or a homemade supporting smp, the 2 processors won't working at the same time, right?

I've no pacience with kernel compiling stuff, thats why I'm trying not to do it at all...

Only chance, to use a homemade one?

Thanks again and have a nice day...

I paste this again just to ask, Is that showing 2 CPUs support? (I'm afraid not, right?)
