As a test. Remove one CPU (keep the same SMP kernel). If the machine
works, test the other CPU in the same socket. If it doesn't, swap
sockets, etc. The idea is to see if there is a motherboard/CPU
problem. Some BIOS/Motherboard-pin documentation is not clear. You
may be hitting the CPUs with the wrong raw clock speed. Some have
different multipliers within, you might be trying to run the CPUs at
as much as twice their rated speed.
