Hi,
I'm installing gentoo on a server with two 6-core processors. So I should have 12 cores seen.
I have set x86_BIGSMP in my kernel but cat /proc/cpuinfo show only 8 proocessors.

What am I missing here ?

Thanks for your help

ats2,

Did you set the number of cpus

CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8

Oh no, you're right. I thought I had set it to 12, but it was still at 8.

Thanks for the quick answer and sorry for the stupid question
