List,
I am experimenting with a Dual processor
Supermicro and plan to use
CentOS 5 when it is released. In the meantime I
have installed Centos
4.4. Sorry for asking such a basic question but
what is the difference
between CentOS (2.6.9-42.0.8.ELsmp) and CentOS
(2.6.9-42.0.8.EL) Both
kernels have been installed, but I have not been
able to find which one is
best to use for what purposes.
2.6.9-42.0.8.EL is for single cpu systems
2.6.9-42.0.8.ELsmp if for multiple cpu systems

Is there even a point to using a non-smp kernel these days? The SMP kernel runs fine on single CPUs so I don't see what the advantage is.
CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
yes when the smp kernel does not work on computer and you can only use the non smp kernel.
