I'm very curious about the basis of this claim. AMD CPUs implement the x86 instruction set just as well as Intel CPUs. Do you have any references for this? It seems very unlikely to me. Even if it is the case, is it really *that* hard to 'apt-get install kernel-image-2.4-k7'? noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
