It seems it is sort of difficult to tell which Celeron goes into which catagory, when they are using same naming for 3 generations. Of interest is the P4 Celerons, which seems to have started at 1.8 GHz. Would it be possible if we amend it to add this line as this: Original: "Pentium-4" for the Intel Pentium 4 or P4-based Celeron. Revised: "Pentium-4" for the Intel Pentium 4 or P4-based 1.8 Celeron or later It would help stop the little confusion as I have found out when I compiled the 2.6.2 on Celeron 1.7 and it seems to crash one way or other when I selected the Pentium-4 for compile and after recompiling it to Pentium III, it works fine. Not sure on the Pre-Coppermine Celeron, but I do know that there is some confusion on trying to figure out which version of Celeron by looking at the clock speed itself for Coppermine and P4 versions. -- Best regards, Elikster mailto:elik@webspires.com
