I have just built a new system using an AOpen MX69 Socket 7 micro-ATX motherboard (all-in-one type with VIA MVP4 chipset), a Cyrix M2-333 CPU and an InWin micro-ATX desktop case. I transferred my previous file server system (SuSE 6.3, Pentium-based compiled kernel, hard drives and all cards) to the new system. I previously had transferred this system to several different types of motherboards and CPUs without any ill effects. However, when fsck runs on /dev/hda3, it spews out error messages. The most common is virtual memory pointer being invalid or inaccessible. Do I need to do a new installation to get this to work?

It turns out that the Cyrix M2 PR-333 can be configured with different settings on the motherboard, some more stabler than others. So far, 3 x 83.3 MHz (250MHz) seems pretty stable. If you try to run the CPU at 266MHz, the kernel spits out error messages left and right. I'm going to try 2.5 x 100MHz to see if that's stable as well. I shouldn't be surprised by this since I only paid $28 USD for this particular CPU. :) Thanks!
