Hi,
I'm just configuring my kernel and I want to know which setting I should use in the "processor family" option
Here's the output from cat /proc/cpuinfo

Excellent, thanks.
I thought it would be that one but I just wanted to double check. |

Actually it doesn't really matter which one you select; the resulting kernel will
run regardless. This option merely tells GCC which core to optimize instruction
scheduling for. |
