I have a couple of questions about SMP, what boards do i have to watch out for, not working? will the SMP kernel work with cyrix/AMD chips? I was recently considering, just to experiment (it would kill my budget though) to buy my roomate's P150 chip (real bargain) then buy a dual pentium mb plus another P150. The whole thing will cost me almost 400$, is it worth it? The thing is I just read that dual pentiums are nothing compared to dual pentium pros, is this true (especially running at 150mhz) What kind of performance increase could i expect over a single P150? Last general question, is the SMP kernel stable as of now and are the same drivers and ports available for it? Thanks in advance, Alfred perlsta@sunyit.edu
