Hardware update...
Aquin is doing better now, thank you for asking. I thought I had some memory issues (the old sticks of 72-pins giving up the ghost). I'm not sure now.
I'm compiling up Linux 2.6.10 on aquin at this time. Initially, there was some problems -- GCC would report a Segfault in exactly the same file. Given that the hardware was donated by a in-state fur, I went in and swapped the memory out with stuff I had. I also checked the Pentium chip in there, which I had assumed was a P-100Mhz, instead of the 75Mhz the guy said. Popped off the heatsink, and... lo and behold, it is a 75Mhz Pentium there. The motherboard was set wrong. Set the jumper back over, and it's compiling slower, but safely this time.
At least it has PCI slots.
