Craig White had also written
"You could probably repeat for smp kernel if you have multiple processors"
I will need to do that but I don't know what you mean - do I need driver
disks for that too?
You should not need driver disks for install for an smp kernel.
The installer uses the regular kernel and not an smp kernel.
Well, you need them at install time in the sense that if you want the system
to boot to the SMP kernel when your done installing, it has to be there.

Thanks, but this doesn't help.
I'm installing on an HP with dual processors.
(And a dual processor Acer after that.)
Craig mentions "repeat for smp kernel" in the context of compiling the
megaraid driver first with kernel-devel-xx.i586 and then again with
kernel-devel-xx.686 and loading them at install time in a special sequence.
Is there something similar that needs to be done with
kernel-smp-devel-xx.i586/686? Compile what? Load when?
Suppose I can get the megaraid scsi driver working and Centos4.4
installed and running: can I ignore the smp stuff and sort it out later?
