:> A pentium-II cpu uses a Pentium-PRO core, not a pentium core. In
:> otherwords, those are I686_cpu's you have, not 586's, so you should
:> specify both the I586_cpu and the I686_cpu options.

:Is there some reason that you can't just use I686_cpu? I do on my dual PII
:box, and it works...
Oh sure, that will work, but I haven't found that removing the I586_cpu
improves performance any and I've shot myself in the foot in the past
by not having it - I have a mix of machines and sometimes I shift boot
disks around. The K6-II's are recognized as 586 cpu's.
