Apparently I missed the whole smp kernel thing earlier. "yum
--enablerepo centosplus install kernel-smp" will provide smp support.
I'd recommend reading through the yum docs. You can do some very
interesting things, for example "yum --enablerepo centosplus list
kernel* " will show all available kernel packages. If you want a full
list of what's available you can do yum --enablerepo centosplus list >
rpmlist and it will give you a list of all available packages in a
file called rpmlist. Once you know the basics you can get very
creative.
