SPM kernels through Apt-Get on Lenny?


Couldnt find any SMP kernels through apt/synaptic, using the default ftp.us.debian repositories. Are there any official images for SMP, or am I not using the right repositories? (like to stick to the official ones if possible)

Thanks

SMP is enabled by default on all debian pre-compiled kernels.

Edit: ... I think...

5. SMP images merged with non-SMP. After the release of linux-image-2.6.17-2 the SMP and non-smp images where integrated into only one image. After this you will no longer find images like linux-image-2.6.16-2-686-smp and linux-image-2.6.16-2-686 but only one image that will detect at run time the presence of a SMP system and enable or disable the SMP code:

* Sarge: kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686 and kernel-image-2.6.8-2-686-smp
* Etch: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686
