The system confirms the following:

Altos/SCO Multi-Processor Extensions (MPX) has been loaded.

You must reboot the system before MPX will be active. Once you have
rebooted, you can verify that multiple processors are working by logging
in as root and typing “uname-X”, and looking for the “NumCPU” field. It
should say, “NumCPU=2”. This means the system is using 2 CPUs.

Please type “init 6” to reboot the system.

13. When the UNIX prompt, #, appears:

TYPE: init 6

PRESS: Enter

The system automatically reboots.
