Just need a SMP kernel if you don't have one already (run uname -a and
look for the 'smp' tag). You can do cat /proc/cpuinfo to see, you
may already have a SMP kernel if it's a 370, I suspect the system is
probably hyperthreaded which will trigger the installer to install a
SMP kernel during installation.

Beyond that no special configuration. CentOS 5.x I believe doesn't
have a distinction between SMP and non SMP, all kernels are SMP aware.
