fedora core 3 install cd do not boot on my k6-2+

fedora core 3 install cd do not boot on my k6-2+. It hangs at "uncompressing linux". My k6-2+ works with other os such as win98, winxp, redhat 7.3. I changed the processor with an common k6-2 (without +, i.e. without the cache L2 on die) and worked ok. I submited this as a bug at bugzilla....

Yes! It worked :D. But did not worked at 100 FSB. 95 FSB seems ok. 1. 95 x 5 = 475 Mhz, vcore = 2.0 2. 95 x 5.5 ~ 525 Mhz, vcore = 2.0 3. 95 x 6 = 570 Mhz, vcore = 2.2 All three stable and cold. In the 3rd case, my mobo report the cpu as k6-2+@550Mhz, but cpuid and dxdiag saw it working @570. I gues...

k6-2+ @ 500 hangs my ali aladin 5 based system

I have an old k6-2@450 working ok for weeks overclocked @ 500, on a matsonic 62060s mainboard, ali aladin 5 chipset, matrox g200 8mb video card, 120 sdram pc100.
