Oops... I didn't notice the Pentium I stuff. This discards CONFIG_HPET_TIMER and will probably leave the CONFIG_X86_PM_TIMER out as, AFAIK, it depends on ACPI. I don't know if your machine does have a working ACPI implementation, even more if it will be able to support CONFIG_X86_PM_TIMER. So, I must confess my total ignorance on such an old hardware. Anyone?
