Manually adding in CONFIG_SMP=y and running menuconfig triggers CONFIG_NR_CPUS option to become available, but still the SMP option not visible. Running make-kpkg OK, but dpkg -i kernel_image does not create any initrd.img. We did not try any further kernel recompilation , but installed instead kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686-smp RAID performance: Running Bonnie on the Raid array using kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686-smp gives an unexpected 5% decrease in I/O compared to using the preinstalled 2.4.27-1-386 kernel. We are still happy: we get 114Mb/s write, 74Mb/s read. If you wish more info on this, please let me know. 'Ghost' devices on boot: Discover finds non-existent ich2rom device.
