Re: any doc on how to compile, and install SMP kernel on current DFL installation

Short answer: make custom kernel:
http://leaf.dragonflybsd.org/~justin/handbook/kernelconfig.html
Longer answer:
Copy /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/GENERIC to /usr/src/sys/i386/conf/MYKERNEL
Edit the MYKERNEL file; remove the # comment marks before the lines that say:
#options SMP # Symmetric MultiProcessor Kernel
#options APIC_IO # Symmetric (APIC) I/O
If you have not updated your source files since the last time you build
world, or have never updated the system since install, do this as root:
cd /usr/src
make buildkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
make installkernel KERNCONF=MYKERNEL
reboot
When your machine comes back up, you should have a MP kernel. If you have
updated the contents of /usr/src/ since you last built a new kernel, you
will want to do a full buildworld - check the handbook linked above for
details.
