kernel won't run on a smp platform, kernel-smp will run on both UP and SMP but on UP it will run slightly slower.
Both kernel/kernel-smp run on a smp system. I think kernel would just enable the first processor. I have never tried running kernel-smp on a 1p system.
I am running the smp version on a one CPU machine and am not having any problems.
Linux cornette-development 2.6.1-1.52smp #1 SMP Tue Jan 20 15:19:59 EST 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
I downloaded the smp version by mistake, but it still works. Of course, all of the features won't be usable.
