Hallo, Linux folks!
(first post here)
I am trying to find out whether I can start using dual-core cpus with
Red
Hat EL 3. Three questions below - please answer if you have any
insight.
- The first update to EL 4 announced "support" for dual core cpus both
from AMD and Intel, but doesn't say what that support means. I would
think with the right BIOS, the OS might distribute all tasks among
all cores right out of the box, as long as you don't need any
special
parallel computing capabilities.
Or will the OS just not recognize the second core?
- The most recent update to EL 3 (which is what I am using) does not
say anything about dual-core. Does that mean there is no chance it
will run on a dual-core chip?
- My application is multi process server type stuff. I'd like to use
dual chip boards. Are there any dual chip dual-core solutions you
can
buy? I haven't found one yet.
Cheers
Hubert Schwarthoff
