BTW, you said you got a database corruption and you felt it was kernel 2.2's fault... I guess there are more people who get problems with excessive overclocking than those getting problems with kernel 2.2 ! I _have_ already overclocked several pentiums 75 in the past, some of them could even run at 120 MHz. The least I could say is that this processor is the worst reliable overclocker because it _seems_ to work but you still get a few glitches in very specific applications. I had people tell me that they were used to set it back to 75 to run photoshop, but "everything else runs just fine" ! And it doesn't support aging very well, and must be set back to its original speed after several months (or you need to considerably raise the voltage). So I would say : please set this CPU to 75 MHz and test 2.4 again on it. IF you still have problems, THEN you can get back here to seek some help. But don't hope for much help under these stupid conditions.
