I don't believe the stock Bering kernel supports a non-FPU processor (SX). There are alternate kernels available for Dachstein to run on SX's on Charles' site. The 8M of Ram will need modification to work on, which is possible but not preferred as long as you load minimal packages and log Ramdisk. If there is a i586 kernel floating around, I am sure it is a mistake and should be located/corrected. I can't say that I can remember anyone having problems with a K5 chip, but that could also be a (remote) possibility as well. We need some more information on your exact hardware to be of much more help. There has been some good suggestions thus far. -- ~Lynn Avants aka Guitarlynn guitarlynn at users.sourceforge.net http://leaf.sourceforge.net If linux isn't the answer, you've probably got the wrong question! ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by: To learn the basics of securing your web site with SSL, click here to get a FREE TRIAL of a Thawte Server Certificate: http://www.gothawte.com/rd524.html ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user SR FAQ: http://leaf-project.org/pub/doc/docmanager/docid_1891.html
