I have got Fedora Core 2 Release installed on a new HP DL380 2-cpu box.
Tried to install a product with a Java installer and it hung. Which is ok. What's not ok is that one of the Java processes became unkillable with -KILL and sat on one of the 4 "CPUs" forever.
I guess, SMP is not quite there yet?
Could be you're running into a Java-related problem reported earlier on this list (quoted below.) FC1 and SMP is certainly fine though, I use that combination to develop very large Java applications. I haven't had a chance to upgrade my development machine to FC2, though I may wait until these problems are resolved.

That's a pretty nasty bug. Uninstalling the i686 kernel and installing the i586 kernel did the trick. Thanks for the help.
It is indeed. Together with the MBR trashing problem, I'd say they are
both candidates for a showstopper for FC2, but it's too late now, and as
I'm not involved in development I'll just shut up :)
You could also try installing Arjan's latest i686 kernel and see if that
does the trick:
