I am fairly new to Linux but I was fairly good with unix 10 years ago. 
I am assuming that the kernel with the SMP tag is for HW with multiple
processors?  

If so then the question is will that SMP kernel be well behaved on a 
Single processor hardware?  I would expect it to be well behaved but 
PC hardware sometimes surprises me.
