Hi,
test10, compiled with gcc 2.95.2, won't boot on one of my machine.
It stops after the "now booting the kernel" message. Yes, I have
configured Virtual Terminal and VGA text console.
The configuration also contains Reiserfs (as a module) but that
shouldn't make a difference.
The system is a AMD K6-2/400 on an ASUS P5A-B board. lspci output:

Nope, it doesn't. Same observation.
BTW this was the first 2.4 kernel that I tried on this machine.
So I cannot say since when it's broken. 2.2.x works fine.

The test10pre series is where my machine (also with ALI chipset) was broken
but Linus fixed it by guessing how some of the pirq stuff worked on the 1533
chip so test10 final works for me. I'm guessing test9 will work for you
or that removing the pci_enable line in Jeff's patch completely might do
the job for you. Yes?

Ouch. This was it. I simply overlooked this option and used the one
that worked with 2.2...
But it would be nice if the kernel could detect the wrong CPU type
and print a message before it stops. Perhaps compile the init
section without CPU specific optimization?
Thanks for your help,
