How can I determine whether my kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3 is for SMP, or for
uniprocessing? I have only one processor on HP OmniBook X2.
I infered from the labels.
The first had smp in the label, the other has up in the label.

Sounds pretty similar to what I have ... some 20% of files are not OK
after switching power off and reboot...

My grub.conf is generated by anaconda, Is it fine to edit it manually?
If not, I'm in trouble.
I have only one entry for kernel-2.6.11-1.14_FC3 in grub.conf file.
It
is quite similar to the entry of well working kernel-2.6.10-1.770_FC3
(except the img file off-course).
I have no way of telling whether your kernel is SMP or not.
Would you suggest just to kill this RPM and to wait for the next
update?
My advice would not be useful.
So far, I have not directly used any rpms.
