Hello Michael,

# My BIOS doesn't even know what a DX4 is, but my 5x86 is still working
# OK.  The only thing is that it runs in write-through mode instead of
# write-back.  But my L2 cache is write-back, so it's not a huge
# penalty.

	By the way, are you using the jumper settings for "plain" DX2/66,
	or those for P24D (if your mainboard knows about it :)  ?
