Okay, here's a point of reference
Motherboard: SOYP 5TF5 (Triton 430HX, 512kb pipeline cache)
Award BIOS
Processor: Cyrix 6x86 166+, rev 1, step 7
Ram: 2 x 16MB 60ns EDO
I've been recompiling a few kernels and getting trouble with
the dreaded gcc fatal errors, but with signal 4 (SIGILL) rather
than 11 (SIGSEGV). The Cyrix patch seemed to aggravate the
condition (died 4 or 5 times in a compile rather than once).
Also, with the Cyrix patch fully enabled I can't reboot into
Win95 (no flames please :), it just gets into a loop rebooting
itself and I have to switch the machine off.
I de-tuned the BIOS from 60ns RAM settings to 70ns RAM settings
and diasabled all but the processor identification and things
look fine at the moment.
