furthermore, you better have SMP processors with the same stepping
number (if your processors came from two different boxes, the CPUs
may have come from different production batches)

Were the previous boxes SMP? We had a problem with a machine
running fine un UP mode but died within minutes in SMP mode.
The problem turned out to be heat related and getting better
fans fixed the problem.
