User Feedback :: No Math Co-processor
it boots great on my 1.3gtz machine... but on my 486SX the linux kernel barfs stating that no math co-processor or emulation is present .. is there a work around?
Nopers. Sorry.
DSL requires a coprocessor.
I think that older versions (<0.5.0) it would work with no coprocessor, but that was a long time ago.
crap.
Some time ago I did compile a kernel for PC's without coprocessors: http://www.ipt.ntnu.no/~knutb/dsl/index.html
Take a look at the Readme.txt file for a (very) short how-to.
