Quoting the latest Kernel Traffic (kt.zork.net), which
summerizes the kernel development list:
'But Alan Cox pointed out, "Athlon SMP will actually not always
work with 2.2.'

I suggest pointing this out to the one who *did* set up the
cluster, and perhaps persuading him/her to move to 2.4 and a
distro that supports it.

As for your hardware, I am jelous.  Where do I sign up for an
