That's not really needed anymore as I've already made the necessary changes to detect smp support. They will only be uploaded after the Beta1 release though.
See also my replies to your original mail (not CCed).

Grant, do you happen to know a similar trick to detect 64-bit support even when the installer is running with a 32-bit kernel? Currently the installer will only select a 64-bit kernel if the user changed to the 64-bit D-I kernel when the installer was booted (which can be done by answering Yes to the question asked by the firmware whether you want to interact with the boot loader).

Cheers,
FJP
