Greetings, I run SuSE 6.4 on a AMD K6-500 system without any problems. The kernel now is 2.2.14 from SuSE update. I haven't done anything special to tune the kernel for AMD. I assume it should work for you too. HTH, Kastus On Fri, 27 Oct 2000, Don Hansford wrote:
G'day folks! Great news (for me, anyway)! I'm finally getting to replace my worn-out old Cyrix 300 CPU with an AMD K6-500. The mobo will handle it OK, but I'm wondering about the kernel (standard SuSE 6.4). Since it was installed with the Cyrix, will it automagically handle the AMD? I know there is some sort of 'stepping routine' that the Cyrix needs, and I wonder whether this is set in the kernel on install, or is it called at bootup time only if needed? Any ideas?
