really ? I was under the impression that all the SMP capable C3's
were Nehemiah cores, which are 686 capable.

cp configs/config-i586 configs/config-i586-smp
echo CONFIG_SMP=y >> configs/config-i586-smp
edit Makefile.config and add a stanza for your new i586-smp (mostly cut-n-pasting the 586 one
 but change the filename)
add the 586-smp config to the kernel-2.6.spec sources: list

that should be it, unless I've forgotten something.
