I've just installed 2.1.63 on my p166, and tried the f00f exploit, but it
still crashes. It doesn't do a complete stop like before (power-down,
etc.), it lets me change vc's and type to the console i ran the exploit
from, but all input/output is completely dead and i have to slam on the
reset. My /proc/cpuinfo is as follows:

---
processor       : 0
cpu             : 586
model           : Pentium 75+
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
stepping        : 12
fdiv_bug        : no

My system is a p166 (running at 167, screwy jumpers :P) with 48 megs of
ram on a triton(1) chipset.  Any sort of help/explanation would be greatly
appreciated.
