Let me guess: you started from the default config and just flipped the CPU option to 486? That doesn't work in 2.4 kernels, since it leaves the derived "I have TSC" option enabled.
A second configuration round (make oldconfig for example) fixes this. grep TSC .config to ensure it's not set before compiling. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
