Hmm. I just checked Intel's web site (should've done so earlier), and it
appears that Intel still dubs the new revision as "Celeron", although I'm
sure it was introduced as CeleronII in some sources (try
http://www.google.com/search?q=CeleronII). So I'll just have admit that your
first patch was technically correct, and I was wrong. Sorry for the
inconvenience.

I still think "Celeron II" is clearer, but heaven knows what Intel will sell
by that name three years from now (just think of i860).

compiling kernel 2.4.4 on mandrake 8.
Just checked - no mention of Celeron II in there-
   Pentium Pro/Pentium II/Celeron
is the only line mentioning the celeron; maybe the PIII line could be changed 
to something like "Pentium III/Celeron II"?

You should select PIII. Configure.help already says that, but here is a

  Try both, and see if your machine throws up.

 800Mhz Celeron is actually a CeleronII, and it does SSE just like PIII (the
 only difference being cache). Therefore PIII option should work.

 Perhaps this should be fixed in the config menu (or is it already? Which
 kernel are you compiling?)

compiling kernel 2.4.4 on mandrake 8.
Just checked - no mention of Celeron II in there-
   Pentium Pro/Pentium II/Celeron
is the only line mentioning the celeron; maybe the PIII line could be changed 
to something like Pentium III/Celeron II?
I would supply a patch, but I don't know how to write such a thing :)

  It seems Erik Mouw already submitted a patch, altough I agree that Celeron
  II might be a better name for the thing than Celeron (Coppermine).
 
 So what about this one? This time I had to change Configure.help and
 setup.c as well to reflect the changes in config.in :)

Hmm. I just checked Intel's web site (should've done so earlier), and it
appears that Intel still dubs the new revision as Celeron, although I'm
sure it was introduced as CeleronII in some sources (try
http://www.google.com/search?q=CeleronII). So I'll just have admit that your
first patch was technically correct, and I was wrong. Sorry for the
inconvenience.

I still think Celeron II is clearer, but heaven knows what Intel will sell
by that name three years from now (just think of i860).
