Yes, it supports the second processor via ASMP (SMP in a furture release as program announced on my birthday). You need to rebuild the kernel and tell it you have 2 processors (in your config file): processors 2 You can run with the kernel built thusly with only the one processor if you want. Then when the second cpu board comes, shutdown, install, reboot, and go. (Well, probably... shutdown, install, reboot, shutdown, run diagnostics, reseat the board, smack it.... then reboot and go because that's how life it :-) ) Fred
