How to build smp kernel

[Feng Xian]

 Hi,

  I had a 16-core machine and tried to build a smp version of
 linux-2.6.23 kernel. I did the following steps:

 1. make menuconfig ( actually I didt change the configuration since it
 builds SMP support by default)

 2. make; make modules; make modules_install; make install

 But the final image file is  vmlinuz-2.6.23, not vmlinuz-2.6.23smp. Is
 this final image a real smp kernel? If not, do i need to apply
 patches. Thanks!

 Feng
