Hi James,

I now understand Chadley's reformulated question this way: given you
have an SMP (i.e. dual CPU) system but you boot a single CPU kernel (for
whatever reason) - will then in /proc/stat appear cpu, cpu0 _and_ cpu1
or just cpu and cpu0?
Paul had the same insecurity when he suggested to check whether
/proc/cpuinfo contains a "processor : 1" entry in such a case.

As I don't have a system where I can check this actually, someone with
ability to look at should answer.

Alexander
