Following the recent security alert I've installed new kernels on 4 machines including two HP LPro servers, one of which is dual processor. I installed the corresponding 686 smp kernel and /root is showing: vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-2.4.18-1-686-smp However, uname -ra gives: Linux Hydra 2.4.18-1-686 #1 Fri Jun 6 22:41:17 EST 2003 i686 unknown I am assuming that I am booting from the smp kernel but why is uname -ra showing otherwise? TIA Clive
