This is not true, this Kernel works perfectly with K6, K6-II and K6-III
but on many Athlon Socket A Mainboards it does not Work. You can be
lucky if you have another machine where you can compile YOUR OWN k7
and the instzall it on your Athlon/Sempron/Duron machine.
I have 24 Servers using the AsusTek A7V600-X with secopnd version of the
Athlon and with Semprons and the 686 from Debian does not work on it.
I have had to install the 386 (it was under Sarge) and now the 484 if I
reinstall under Etch. And after this, Roll my own Kernel for k7.
The same problem is for the 686-xen Kernel.
