the sil is fraid or fakeraid..it's actually software raid done by a
binary often proprietary driver,..if you want to do raid one buy a real
hardware raid card or use the linux mdraid.

Hi William
I didn't trun acpi back on (it's a sure way to freeze the computer). I did
however find out that Linux ignores the RAID1 that is set by the SIL SATA
card I have installed :-( See my last post (just a few minutes ago) with
more details.

Hi William
You're right ... I do have 2 HDs and my root is not what I thought it is!
Here is what is happening with this system:
It has a SIL SATA RAID0/1 card installed with 2x 160GB SATA HDs connected to
it. The card is configured to mirror between the HDs (RAID1). But as I saw

Here's my /boot/grub/grub.conf content:

Hi Peter
The symlinks aren't broken: the grub.conf file is located in /boot/grub/.
/etc/grub/menu.lst points to it and so does /etc/grub.conf ...
[r...@server grub]# ls -l /etc/grub.conf /boot/grub/menu.lst
/boot/grub/grub.conf

Hi Ralph
You're right and I'm partially wrong: I changed /boot/grub/menu.lst from
acpi=off to pci=nommconf and rebooted the system expecting it to come up
with the new command line parameters. As you've shown me in the paste of the
dmesg output I posted this isn't the case. Which makes me wonder,

Which brings me back to my original post: how do I enable multicore on a

Hi Agile
There's no non SMP kernel in CentOS 5.x (check out:
http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/CentOS5#head-d70935212ce3b7b072b0075c1807a4bd3ea175b7).
dmesg boot output (taken from /var/log/dmesg) shows the following lines:
Linux version 2.6.18-92.1.22.el5 (mockbu...@builder16.centos.org) (gcc

I tried that and it the result is the same: Linux only finds, initializes

Hi
I've installed CentOS 5.2 (i386) in a computer with a DG33BU motherboard
... When I installed it it crashed because of ACPI issues. Searching Google
I found that I need to turn ACPI off in order to successfully install
