When i got an oops it was because i configured the bios to erogate just 1.7 volt to the processor instead of default 1.75 volts (too hot here, with 31 degrees it is difficoult to keep cold a processor like this). I think that FSB speed is the key, at less for some of the VIA chipset. I have there an Athlon 1300 Mhz with 13x100 setting and FSB of 200 Mhz. Are you using a processor with 266 Mhz FSB? (All 266 Mhz FSB Athlon I administer are running on AMD chipset). bests Luigi Genoni - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
