Here's my summary about how I managed to use Linux on a Compaq Deskpro 6000.

Nothing in particular except that it forces all PCI devices on IRQ 11.
So much for greater performance!

Now it works. After few attempts to modify old

by the short file with one option (defaultroute)
and 2-3 strings as well. Then I just added this option
in old (and valid) .ppprc file. Hope this will be fixed later.
