16 Your milage will vary but this should provide the necessary clues:
17
18 cd /usr/src/linux
19 make menuconfig
20
21 Processor type and features
22 [ ] Symmetric multi-processing support (uncheck this)
23
24 exit, save
25
26 make
27 make modules_install
28 cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/something
29
30 modify your grub or lilo boot
31
32 boot the new kernel.
33
34 emerge rt2500
