  Could this possibly be the K6 bug?
  Or did that only happen with the K6 266, or am I wrong in some other
way (my knowledge of the K6 bug isn't the best)?
  I think the error only happened intermittently (some kernal compiles
only) so that is probably not the cause.
  I think if the serial number is greater than 9730... (or possibly a
slightly lower number) then you should be safe. The 9730 represents
the 30th week of 97. For more info lookup K6 bug on
comp.os.linux.hardware in dejanews.
