Title says it all. On my Thinkpad 600E, I had to disable the L2 cache in the BIOS in order to get it to boot. I then re-enabled it in software using SETMUL L2E in AUTOEXEC.BAT. This works for DOS and Windows 9x.
But what about Linux?
I have AntiX (a very lightweight Debian-based distro, with Linux kernel 4.x) on a separate partition. It works great, but I want to make sure the L2 cache is enabled, and I don't think I know enough about how that would even work in Linux to be certain about it.
Can anyone enlighten me?
