Yes..  DSL 0.6.3 runs fine on dual cpu systems..
version 0.7 only in "nosmp" node for now.

I use DSL 6.3 on Dual 1.9g XP's, Dual 1.0g P3's and Dual 933 P3's.
Lightning fast, easy to modify, easy to restore if you
like to TOAST your install from time to time. :)

I'm Curious to find out if your xeons like DSL?

Is your DSL 0.7 livecd a "base install" disk, or do you boot up with DSL extensions and file restoration?

I was wondering if you need the nosmp boot parameter when you are booting from just the plain old 50MB sized livecd without any *.tar.gz, filetools or *.dsl

Yes, simply booting from live cd, no parameters, stalls.
Using "nosmp" works fine for now..

I've emailed roberts and john about this, and they're on it..
"something with dsl-config..."

No more issues with DSL and dual cpu's!!
Runs just like a mean machine!
0.7.1 has saved the day again!!

If you've got a 2cpu machine, your gonna LOVE DSL !!
