Hi,

2.2.0-pre1-ac2 fails to boot on my Cyrix 6x86, since it wrongly detects
that I am trying to boot a kernel compiled for a 586 on a 486. (The
kernel is indeed compiled for a 586 class processor, I believe this is
the correct thing to do in this case, and has always worked correctly in
the past).

I ran ac1 for ~24 hours or so without problem.

/proc/cpuinfo (from pre1-ac1) is below. If any more info is required,
just ask.

processor : 0
vendor_id : CyrixInstead
cpu family : 5
model : 4
model name : 6x86L 2x Core/Bus Clock
stepping : 2
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
sep_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 1
wp : yes
flags : fpu de cx8
bogomips : 133.53
