The big problem one is the 1G/2Gig split, which causes same structures wrong offset problems where modules do load. Once you include that you end up needing
1G-uni 2G-uni 1G-smp 2G-smp
SuSE I believe ship a 4G kernel setup too using the big mem patches on 2.2 so you can add
4G-uni and 4G-smp
Im not so sure its a good idea at that point but if it handles the SMP case it ought to handle the more dangerous 1 or 2 gig problem as well
