Hi,
In the 2.4 kernel, is it possible for you to separate the Pentium II and
Pentium Pro as confiugration options, as you have done for the 2.6
kernel, or is it too late for that?
Thanks,

Señor (or señora?) Magallon,
Thank you for writing back. Am I to assume that this is essentially a
working patch that I could go ahead and apply to my kernel?
Thanks a lot,
