Just out of curiosity ...
I've been just doing make on a uni-processor machine (UP board, too), so
i've been getting SMP kernels for a while ...

1) does this matter?  will it cause any problems of any sort?
2) does the = ? mean anything, or is it just defining SMP?  I have a
	friend who is adding a second processor soon, and keeps insisting
	that he will have to change it to SMP = 2 to make it recognize the
	second processor ... does the number matter at all?

thanx!
