make sure L2 cache is enabled in BIOS
since the k6-2 doesn't have any it's pretty slow
if you can find a k6-2+, you'll see an improvement

strange about os install...
have you checked hdd for errors?

was tempted to get 512mb micron f/$35 fr/amdmb trading post lastnight, but it was 2x256mb
am thinking/hoping 1x512mb in dimm 1 (0) will work and maybe even sneak my 256mb stick into dimm 2 f/768mb

i'd just go for it, but to match my 256mb stick exactly will be @$120 from crucial!

...how 'bout the G5?
can you test the 512mb in it ?
i've got 256mb and am wondering whether to just get 128mb more
or try another 256mb or now, try a 512mb stick :?

thanks

...the word, iirc, is to always install 4 in 1's in normal mode
w/mvp3 chipset, then use gtu/coolbits to adj./oc
