Description Need Real Name 2000-08-09 18:23:06 UTC 
I have a AMD duron processor which is recognize as an atlhon (I think the 
problem comes from here).
At the very begining of boot i get a kernel panic after the following 
message :
Disabling CPUID serial number ... general protection fault 0000
CPU 0

then comes the register and stack status
and Kernel panic : attempted to kill the idle task
in swapper task not syncing

Well is there a solution ? or any new distrib that might solve the 
problem ?

If you need more information like exact stack and register status, don't 
hesitate to contact me.
