nse,

Back in November I got an SMP kernel working on an Xserve G4, but it was 
   not stable. The same server is currently running -CURRENT UP. I'm 
hoping news will show up on this list when it's time to try SMP again.

and look for Xserve G4.
As you'll see at end of thread, I was using SYSV-related kernel 
settings, maybe that was the problem.

Give it a shot!

Ross
