More modifications will be required later for installations from ftp due to the shared platform name with 32-bit powerpc, but this is enough for snapshot CDs to work.

* Remove a bunch of code used to detect SMP on ((i386 && !pc98) || amd64) andDag-Erling Smørgrav2009-11-101-2/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | offer to install an SMP kernel. The way this worked was: on supported platforms, code to read ACPI tables and BIOS MP tables was compiled into sysinstall, and if an SMP kernel config was present in the source tree when sysinstall was built, code that called it was also compiled. Since we haven't had SMP kernel configs in years, the latter was never compiled and the former never ran. This only removes dead and unreachable code; it does *not* remove the NCpus variable, nor the code that sets it to 1, nor the code that asks the user to select a kernel from a list.
