Recompile kernel without SMP

[Paul Grinberg]

Josh,

I have a good reason for that. I use Cisco VPN client for Linux, and it
does not work with SMP kernel.  

So I have to use Windows to login VPN....which is very annoying :)))
Also, it is probably good from the learning perspective....

Best,
Paul

Why do you want this non-SMP kernel?  As Jarod said, it's mostly
pointless
for x86 to build UP.  Most of the SMP operations are runtime patched so
you
don't have the SMP overhead on a UP machine as I understand things.
