Which is part of the reason we liked it.  I loved SunOS 4.x but it was

it and it was a bit more complex than v7.

David Barak and the OS group as Solbourne wwere able to do it for OS/MP. First as a ASMP kernel where CPU0 ran the unix kernel, but scheduled jobs for all the other CPUs, the as  SMP where the kernel could run on any CPU with progressively finer locking on each release.
