[olug] Compile Problem on Athlon/KT266

[Nate Rotschafer]

Sounds good...good luck RAM problems are tough to track down sometimes and 
generally the least suspected problem...trust me I know this the hard 
way...glad to help and memtest86 fits on a floppy and is now a standard in 
my complement of tools I take with me now for working on computers...
