Hi All,
	There was a posting back in 1999 requesting an SMP version of
tomsrtbt, and I didn't see a reply in the archives.  My thoughts were
that the single processor kernel would just recognize one of the
processors and happily run... but then I thought maybe I remembered it
backwards (that an SMP kernel would run on the only processor
available).
	Anyway, I am now troubleshooting the first dual processor box
I've run into, using tomsrtbt, and I'm not sure my booting problems are
hardware or not.  I'll build an SMP kernel and try to shoehorn it onto
the floppy if the consensus is that that is necessary, but I didn't see
kernel source in the unpacked stuff, and I've been asleep on the mailing
list (and didn't see info in the FAQ) so I'm not even sure what version
to pick up from the kernel.org archives... Oh, nevermind, just looked at
/proc/version.  Have 2.2.20 source available.
