maybe the following helps:
go into arch/i386/mm/init.c, to line ~139 and uncomment the
smp_alloc_memory() line, and delete these two lines around line ~229:
start_low_mem += PAGE_SIZE;
start_low_mem = smp_alloc_memory(start_low_mem);
[ the point is to run the SMP initialization code earlier. SMP trampoline
stacks have to be below 1M, i think because your other processor is
still in real mode. ]
hope this helps and let us know how it worked out,
