    *light bulb goes off*
    OK. I guess fedora core 4 installed 2 kernels in my laptop (I assume
    this because I have two options to choose from when booting:
    1. Fedora Core (2.6.11-1.1369_FC4smp)
    2. Fedora Core-up (2.6.11-1.1369_FC4))
    My laptop has hyper-threading capabilities so the default kernel is smp
    one, is this the best one for me to boot. From second option, up means
    uni-processors I guess, right?
    Does every FC4 have 2 options (smp and up) installed by default?
    And finally where do I get kernel-devel for SMP? Also what's the extact
    name?

    Thank you very much,
    -Gezim
