Multiple CPUs...verifying

[Marco Greene (Home)]

Does FreeBSD autodetect multiple CPU's or do you specifically have to
configure the kernel and recompile?

I tried downloading the latest code using cvsup..commenting out the
following two lines...and tried to follow the make world procedure as
outline in the handbook.  However, when I try to boot with the new
kernel...it doesn't work.

Also, how do you verify whether or not both CPUs have been configured in the
kernel...and that they are in fact being used?

Other flavours of UNIX have mpstat or prtdiag...

Thanks,
Marco
