No just having a blond moment. Am I mistaken about the error message
about smp_lock being for dual processor support? 

> Did you try installing with less memory?

No. Unless there is reason to suppect the panic is about memory, I
would be reluctant to try that experiment. For one thing, the servers
are not convenient to re-rack and they would be more use to me as
CentOS 3 boxes with 3G of memory than as CentOS 4 boxes with less RAM.

Just burned one. Off to give it a try.
