The code that does that is the following: if [ -z "${CPU}" ] || [ "${CPU}" == "0" ]; then if [ -r /proc/cpuinfo ]; then CPU=`grep processor </proc/cpuinfo | wc -l` else CPU=1 fi fi The problem is, however, the word 'processor' can appear in different places. Consider the following output I get by running the command manually: # grep processor </proc/cpuinfo processor : 0 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) processor Here, I only have a single CPU, but the script determines I have two. I suggest revising the script as follows: replace CPU=`grep processor </proc/cpuinfo | wc -l` with CPU=`grep "^processor.*:" /proc/cpuinfo | wc -l` This way, the pattern matched is restricted to lines starting with the word processor, followed by some number of characters, followed by a colon.
