which motherboard do you have?
I've an AMD k6-2 333 (95mhz bus,3.5x), it works like a charm,
however if i over-clock it, then i've found that the
systems gets a little flaky. apparantly one of my
HD's (the boot/windows one) can't cope with a 112+mhz system
bus, and the cpu faults in windows at 350mhz (100x3.5) whereas
linux behaves fine with the exception of
compiling certain things. I've noticed that which compiler
i use (gcc 2.7.x, egcs, pgcc, and gcc 2.8) can alter
the behavior -- different fault and/or behavior. In
any event, building the kernel is usually out at >std speed
for my cpu, oh well.
for reference: my motherboard is the FIC VA-503+ (VIA MVP3, 1mb cache)
userspace is redhat 5.1, kernel is 2.0.35 and 2.1.120.
for reference, i have SIMM memory which may
be the root of the problem for overclocking.
