I don't think dual-core support showed up in RHEL3 until U5 or U6 (the release notes will indicate where support was added). Prior (eg: Update 2) I believe it'll just see one core. I belive the archives of this list should also have some discussion on dual-core support, perhaps hitting that would be useful as well.
As for having 4 cores (2 cores X 2 processors) the AS flavor should handles this well.
