In OpenFirmware you may see some information about your CPUS:
dev /cpus
dev PowerPC.G5@0
.properties
gives you information about CPU_0. The CPU should have status "running"
dev /
dev /cpus
dev PowerPC.G5@1
.properties
gives you information about CPU_1. The CPU should have status "standby" (or anything like this)
If CPU_1 is running, while CPU_0 sleeps, OF works, but OS may have problems. Then you have to change CPUs.
Notice: only MOS works with only one CPU. I'm not sure if other OS can switch down to 32bit.
1xPeg2, PowerMac G5, PowerbookG4, 2x MacMiniG4, Efika (again), A3000T, A3000D and life is never boring.....
