When booting both mylaptop and a desktop I notice that during the boot sequence it says:"assuming 33MHz system bus speed....... Does this mean it's assuming a PCI bus speed of 33MHz?Does that mean the system motherboard speed. i.e. some p.c's may advertise a bus speed of 100MHz or more these days, I think.?Can you change this to speed things up? Thanks
I'm no expert on hardware, so can't address your questions fully. However, you can persuade the kernel to assume 66MHz instead of 33 by adding the line
append="idebus=66" to /etc/lilo.conf and re-running lilo. --To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-request@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmaster@lists.debian.org
