Just tested the -ac7 with K7 optimizations on. I see the same behavior of oopsing right after boot:
[...] Freeing unused kernel memory: 216k freed Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000 [...]
Just fine when I go back down to k6-3, et al, optimizations.
Tyan S2380B VIA KT133A, amd 1.33ghz, regular stepping, no OC or anything.
If you want more info, lemme know.
Also had some USB weirdness, but I'm going to debug that a bit before I report on it.
thx, -jeremy
