6.X has a GENERIC and an SMP prebuilt kernel on CD, and I believe 
sysinstall selects the correct one to install as default. Having said 
that, I always compile my own kernel very soon after the basic install 
and I can't remember more specifics. But dmesg would not lie. Another 
good indication is to see if there is a "C" column in top. Then you are 
definitely running SMP.

PS: Ivan just posted, noticing there are several dmesg outputs in the OP 
post. We' ve been looking at different configurations :)
