I assume you mean p6 and pentium II, since my new boards with: 

Nov  7 17:11:05 one kernel: Intel MultiProcessor Specification v1.1
Nov  7 17:11:05 one kernel:     Virtual Wire compatibility mode.
Nov  7 17:11:05 one kernel: OEM ID: OEM00000 Product ID: PROD00000000 
APIC at: 0xFEE00000
Nov  7 17:11:05 one kernel: Processor #0 Pentium(tm) APIC version 17
Nov  7 17:11:05 one kernel: Processor #1 Pentium(tm) APIC version 17

on linux will lock up. But my freebsd box with a cyrix p200 gets an 
illegal instruction trap.
