Answer the questions about your language, keyboard. Now, eject that CD, and put in FC1 disc1. Choose Local CDROM for the rescue image. Answer the question about the network (you may want to download the latest SMP kernel and install it that way). Choose Continue to try and mount your current system. It should say that your system has been mounted under /mnt/sysimage. Once you hit Enter, you should be at a command-line. Next, copy the SMP kernel to the hard drive: mount /dev/hdc /mnt/source (your's may be hda, hdb, or hdd) cp /mnt/source/Fedora/RPMS/kernel-smp*.i686.rpm /mnt/sysimage/root Now install the kernel: chroot /mnt/sysimage rpm -ivh /root/kernel-smp*.i686.rpm Type `exit` and `umount /mnt/source`. Eject the disc, and type exit to reboot. At the GRUB screen, choose the SMP kernel. Once you verify that the SMP kernel works, change /etc/grub.conf to make it boot that kernel by default. This has been verified on my machine, so it should work for you ;o) Forrest
