I can O/C my computer stable to 230mhz FSB in Windows but it's not stable in Linux -- I get ReiserFS corruption. Up to 220mhz is stable everywhere. (Actually I can push it farther but don't want too much heat).
I'd like to check /proc/cpuinfo early in the runlevel init scripts, preferably before the root is mounted, and halt if the MHz number is too high. However since 'sed', 'cut', 'bash', and 'halt' are only available on the filesystem, I'd either need a special tool like busybox available somewhere or else I have to compile this into the kernel itself. (1) How can I stop the computer from booting during boot process, based on detecting the CPU MHz? (2) How can I run code before the root volume is mounted? (3) Is this only possible during the Kernel itself and therefore I need to ask on a kernel mailing list? Thanks -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
