I am talking about a PII 300 MHz. The bios settings are OK for cpu-cache. The machine is slower than a PI 75 MHz. It does not look like hard disks. There is nothing in dmesg or messages that looks weird.
So how can I see whether the cpu-cache memory is functioning? Could it be broken? Bonus question: How can I see at what 'speed' the RAM runs? Could there be something wrong with the RAM, not generating any error messages, no signal 11s?
