P III 700Mhk dual processor with Mandrake 10.0

Hi,

 

I've this system with multiboot (Win98, Win2k and Mdk 10.0) with Lilo as boot manager.

 

Lilo created several Linux entries - 3 with "smp".

 

The sys works fine with normal Linux entry - Control Cent. - Hardware - only detects one processor, so far so good.

 

But, choosing one of the "smp" variants ( P III, i686, and Linux smp ) gets to dead ends: 1st choice can go up to login sometimes, but afterwards all it does is to show a blue screen ans a stopped watch.

The other two tend to produce a black frozen screen just after Kernel decompression step.

 

Mandrake says that installing a smp kernel would work.

This puts me a doubt: when the Lilo entries were created, install didn't get the appropriate kernel configs?

How shall I proceed to install a smp Kernel?

Going to CC, etc, and using install discs? (I've download version)

Downloading a new one? Has it to be the same 2.6.x as the originally installed?

I would appreciate some help and indications at real newbie level pls

:help:
