Good point. Peter, you can either add it to your /etc/grub.conf (symlink to /boot/grub/grub.conf) or add it during the boot process. To add it to your grub file, you'll want to change the relevant kernel line so it looks something like this: kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.21-4.ELsmp ro root=LABEL=/ acpismp=force Or, you can add the option from the grub menu at boot. When the grub menu comes up, hit "e" to enter edit mode. Cursor to the kernel line and hit "e" again. Add "acpismp=force" to the end of the line. Hit enter. Hit "b" to boot.
