Also unfortunately many people either have no idea about CMOS setup, or never
fiddle with it. It should be a must to play with CMOS settings whenever you
have a hardware problem or for performance/setup reasons. Check your devices
i.e IDE slave/master, cabling e.t.c.

Hi,
1. The processor type option is to allow for a) some optimizations and
b) using extensions to the cpu's instruction set that comes with the
processor eg. amd k6 stuff or pentium stuff.
The practical upshot of all this is that you can compile for a 486 and
it should work on an amd k6 or an a

I wonder if this is my problem? I just built 2.2.14
2.2.14 should work with the athlon, what cpu arch are you telling the
config program you have? you probably need to tell it Pentium (unless
there is an athlon option). from what i saw 2.3.x didn't have all the
athlon patches from 2.2 yet but it was on alan cox's to-do list. if the
kernel doesn't d
