Hi Zwane,

How can you have a 32-way SMP system with flat addressing? There are only 8
bits in the destination address field. Even if you work around that by
assigning a set of CPUs to each dest addr bit, there can only be 15 physical
APIC IDs in flat mode. To get to 32 you must switch into clustered mode.

Please tell me more. I'm intrigued how this can be done.
