Re: [SuSE Linux] Problems Compiling the kernel!!!!!
The question I have is this when compiling the kernel on an AMD k6 how should I declare my cpu??? I declared it as a Pentium. Is this wrong???
FWIW, mine shows up as a 486 (it's really a 166mz K6). It doesn't seem to hurt anything. Hope this helps, John - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e

I use PPro always with my AMD K-6 300. Works great. -Dee W.D.McKinney (Dee) deem@wdm.com Faith is acting on your passions & beliefs. - To get out of this list, please send email to majordomo@suse.com with this text in its body: unsubscribe suse-linux-e
What kind of optimizations (if any) are implemented when you select to compile a kernel to run on one cpu or another? I have a K6-333. I haven't recompiled a new kernel for 5.3 yet, but I saw a post (by you) earlier that one should compile as a PPro for the K6-2 CPUs. Thanks, Mark --- W.D.McKinney wrote:

I separate /usr and /usr/lib on different drives. And I run a 192megs of ram that helps but no other compile time optimizations. The PPro select is one that the Docs from the Kernel said I should use. -Dee Mark Wagnon <mwagnon@ixpres.com> wrote:
