Hyperthreading & Multi-core when compiling
if I have a processor Pentium4 (Celeron-D) with "SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support" do I need to "Multi-core scheduler support" when compiling.

No, if you have an Intel Hyperthreaded CPU and you have HT enbaled in BIOS, you only need:
[ * ] Symmetric multi-processing support
[ * ] SMT (Hyperthreading) scheduler support
