Problems with Red Hat 5.1 and AMDK6

Hello,

The Red Hat installation manual says that AMDK6 is not compatible with
Red Hat 5.1. Whenever I try to install Red Hat 5.1 on my AMDK6, it
freezes up and halts the system. Does anyone have a workaround for that

Could you please post the page it says that on. This
is because I am happily using an AMD K6 233 here on this
box. It never froze when I was installing RH5.0 or RH5.1
on it.

I would hazard a guess that your problems stem from
something else that you have not told us about.

This is weird. I'm using RH too, and I have a K6-266, but never got any
problem with that

Shhhhhhh,

Please don't say this around my AMD K6 300.  It's running just fine and
cool at 68mhz (turbo mode on an Abit TX5) X 5 for a yield of 342mhz and
683.21 bogomips. :-)

1. Red Hat 5.1 and AMDK6

Hello,

Anybody knows if Red Hat 5.1 works with AMDK6? The RedHat installation
hardware list says that it is compatible. Does anyone have a workaround
for that problem? I get unusual error messages when I try to install RH.
