In short, the glibc in Suse 9.2 cannot handle the case when the L2 data cache size is zero. If you consider that a bug in glibc or simics is a matter of personal taste. Future versions of Simics will have user settable values for CPUID function 8000.0006 (I'm currently installing 9.2 with a 4MB L2 cache setting and it's looking ok so far).
And 9.3 will have a glibc that can live with size=0, Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, aj@suse.de, http://www.suse.de/~aj SUSE LINUX Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
