| |
Hello All,
There are 2 cases:-
#1 Intel Pentium 4 Workstation with HyperThreading
Since kernel takes HT as 2 processors, I did say in KConfig as:
CONFIG_SMP= y CONFIG_NR_CPUS=2 CONFIG_SCHED_MC=not set CONFIG_MPENTIUM4=y (Or should I say CONFIG_X86_PC=y) CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=y CONFIG_SCHED_MC=not set RESOURCES_64BIT=not set HOTPLUG_CPU=not set
Pl correct me if am wrong.
#2 Intel Core2Duo Processor - Laptop
CONFIG_SMP= y CONFIG_NR_CPUS=4 ?? CONFIG_SCHED_MC=y CONFIG_X86_PC=y ? (if wrong, what should I set for Xeon QuadCore) CONFIG_SCHED_SMT=not set CONFIG_SCHED_MC=y RESOURCES_64BIT=not set HOTPLUG_CPU=not set
I didn't start this yet (still with Mac, will install in weekend), is this correct one?
[OT] I don't know if I can ask about a suggested distro here or not? Anyway, me read that Fedore & Yellow Dog suits well for this?
