I did a little benchmarking on my machine, as Stefan requested (are 
you on this list?). I haven't had the time to do the bytebench yet.
Maybe later.

Machine: Exp8661 mainboard, 512kb PB cache, 32Mb EDO,
AMD 5k86-P100 @ 100MHz (overclocking doesn't work :).

Could someone shed some light on the 'bad MHz' messages below?
It worries me a little, because I had some touble before. Unix worked 
like it always has: sweet as honey, and MS-DOS kept tripping over its 
feet: random hangs and crashes, missed sequences on the soundcard, 
etc.

Both Unix and MS-DOS work, altough MS-DOS still feels kind'a fragile.

Thanks in advance,
  Kees Jan Koster
