Hi,

compiling kernel 2.4.25 on my old i386 ( yes, it is still fast enough
to handle the telephone line ), i found that `make menuconfig' gave me
`CONFIG_X86_TSC=y', resulting in a kernel panic, of course.  This is
set as a default in arch/i386/defconfig while CONFIG_X86_HAS_TSC is left
undefined in arch/i386/config.in for i[34]86, somehow resulting in the line above.

Setting it explicitly fixes it  :-)

regards

horst wente

PS:
btw: who needs ramfs ??? :
    fs/Config.in: `define_bool CONFIG_RAMFS y'
