Hi Ralph
Which brings me back to my original post: how do I enable multicore on a DG33BU motherboard, booting with pci=nommconf didn't change the situation :-(

Hi Peter
I tried that and it the result is the same: Linux only finds, initializes and uses only 1 core ... :-( Is there anything else I can try to have Linux initialize all 4 cores?
You're probably booting the single CPU kernel.
Try booting the kernel ending with "-ELsmp".
All CentOS 5 kernels are SMP kernels, there is no ELsmp kernel anymore. Problem really seems to be missing ACPI functionality which leads to the problem that only one core is found.
