Hi,
not sure what's available in potato but a quick check on a sid box reveals:
% apt-cache search kernel-image | grep -i smp
kernel-image-2.4.16-686-smp - Linux kernel image 2.4.16 on
PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII SMP.
kernel-image-2.4.17-686-smp - Linux kernel image 2.4.17 on
PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII SMP.
So if I wanted to install an off the shelf SMP kernel I'd do
% sudo apt-get install kernel-image-2.4.17-686-smp
Cheers,
Nick.
