FC5 seems keen to get me to run the smp kernel (I'm on a uniprocessor machine without hyperthreading). I've noticed with this update (since the smp kernel runs - the one that came with the original install didn't) that the smp kernel seems to be noticeably slower than the non-smp kernel.

I'm not getting any of the kernels installed to boot without adding a selinux=0 to the boot process. I don't think this is kernel related, but something to do with selinux. The kernels get to the point where X starts and the cursor appears and then nothing else happens. Dropping to the vt (CTRL-ALT-BACKSPACE) shows the hardware initialized, and then no further progress.
There is a problem with today's selinux-policy.
Revert to the prior one. Believe it will be fixed in tomorrow's rawhide.
