Finally I got some time, and the patches (adjusted for pmap kthread changes)
just worked against -current from Saturday morning.
So in your case either the Motherboard doesn't set up the Celerons
correctly (there is no fallback code in the SMP patches yet) or one
of them doesn't work (but if it shows up in the BIOS it should be ok).
Do you have BIOSCALLS configured? A long shot (I don't think you need them,
but I have them configured and SMP initializes the page behind it, and
maybe I missed an initialisation somewhere).
I'll try to add the reset/start dance to the code for cases where the
BIOS didn't set up the CPU's correctly.
