I'm booting the default kernel on a dual quad core Xeon machine. I only see four CPUs and I expect to see 8. Do I have to build a custom kernel? Is there a switch or configuration parameter I need to set? Thanks, Jerry -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I have never heard if a "Quad Core" processor in production ... it might be there, I could have missed it. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
