When you were finishing your install of 1.2RC3, towards the end, did you choose to use the SMP kernel or did you select the single-cpu option? I have a feeling you didn't choose the SMP option.
The other item is: Did you perform an upgrade on this box or a full, clean install?
-
From a shell do this:
rm /boot/kernel/pfsense_kernel.txt
Now reinstall 1.2-RC3 and it should prompt for the kernel type.

thx for help!

It's an upgrade from RC2 to RC3 -
For clarification, there was a period of time where the update just defaulted to the non SMP kernel on upgrade. It now prompts for the kernel type on upgrade.
