asterisk users - Jun 2005 - does asterisk work with other processors

Hello All,

I have tried numerous versions of asterisk from asterisk at home to 
compiling it myself through the cvs server. I don't understand it works 
fine with the intel p2 box but not the faster via cyrix box. Is it the 
processor or something?

Regards,

Have a look in the makefile. It might be necessary to set the PROC= line. I
have a VIA Epia board and it is necessary to set PROC=i586 for Asterisk to
run because the kernel thinks it is an i686 - but it does not have the full
i686 instruction set as far as I can tell.
