Significance of cpu p5/p6 in config file

[Shubhangi Jadhav]

Hi,

Could someone tell me the significance of
    	cpu p5
    	cpu p6
    I've found these in most of the mainboard config files.
    I'm trying to port LinuxBIOS to a motherboard with via C3 processor. Do I
need to include the above statements in my config file.

Thanks,
Shubhangi

It depends on how compatible the C3 is with the p5 and p6. Start out with 
just P5, see if it works, add p6, see if it still works. Thats's the 
simplest test.
