Eric,
Thanks for the advice. I will try to add the SMP support in the northbridge/amd/amdk8 at first.

Eric,
So If I want to SMP support, I have added the corresponding code by myself at this time.
Or at least work with the others working on it and it can be a cooperative venture.
Basically it is the nature of open source if something isn't implemented you can wait or you can write it.
So far what I have seen is a talented user figuring out LinuxBIOS. I have not seen a developer giving constructive giving constructive feedback or helping in the development.
My general advise to people who want to just use the Opteron port is stay away.
For developers the advice is dig in, just be aware everything is undergoing active development, and there are a lot of pieces that have been stubbed in but have not been written correctly yet. SMP support is one of those.
