Date: Sun, 5 Oct 2003 22:49:57 -0400	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <71650A6F73F1D411BE8000805F65E3CB3B365D@SRV-03> (raw)

Mine is a uniprocessor 533Mhz. It is slotted for a second daughtercard,
though. Don't know how much additional processors would cost.

I did build gentoo on a quad-ppro box about a year ago, and I seem to
remember needing to add something to make.conf to get it  to run 4 parallel
gcc processes.

Please do, I want to install Gentoo on mine also. I've been interested for 
awhile as I'm starting to need things that I don't get (easily) with Debian.

Tell me, did you have to do anything special to get the kernel to recognise 
both processors?
