Here's my processor info : processor : 0 vendor_id : AuthenticAMD cpu family : 6 model : 6 model name : AMD Athlon(tm) XP 2000+ stepping : 2 I downloaded the vanilla kernel linux-2.6.20.3.tar.gz and went onto to install this.During make xconfig , I unchecked the symmetric mutli-processing support , and under Processor Family I selected the Athlon/Duron/K7 option. However after creating the kernel rpm and trying to boot it , I got a Kernel Panic , with some error message saying "microcode : cpu0 not a capable Intel Processor.... ..... mount : could not find filesystem 'dev/root/ setup root : moving /dev failed :no such file" -- "Don't take the name of root in vain."
