Introduction to Linux - A Hands on Guide
This guide was created as an overview of the Linux Operating System, geared toward new users as an exploration tour and getting started guide, with exercises at the end of each chapter.
For more advanced trainees it can be a desktop reference, and a collection of the base knowledge needed to proceed with system and network administration. This book contains many real life examples derived from the author's experience as a Linux system and network administrator, trainer and consultant. They hope these examples will help you to get a better understanding of the Linux system and that you feel encouraged to try out things on your own.

After install MDK 10 lilo has several choices smp - p3. smp - i586 and Linux-smp for two processors computers.
I've a 2- P3 700 Asus P2B-DS sys with PCI HDDs 1GB PC100 mem
Choice "Linux" works OK and shows just 1 processor when Control Center looks for material.
1srt atempt -Loging in with smp - P3 option asks for user/psswrd and them keeps waiting with a stopped watch on the default entrance blue screen.
2nd atempt - smp i586 same reactions, but even before asking for login.
Didn't try linux-smp.
Prior 9.1 installation used to work fine with no otpion for 1 or 2 CPUs, and both recongnized.
I recall seeing a post in a forum related to 10 CE with a Intel HT PC relating the same behaviour. I thought it was solved but cann't find any indication on the subject using the search engines. Anyone has any indication or (preferably, of course...) a solution for that.
My expertise with Linux is at newbie level, just in case someone is kind enouhg to give a way for the prob.
