Elmer <I have long been complaining about AMD's refusal to post their errata list. AMD refuses because they are simply too ashamed.>

From JC's -- a message by Wolfe:

There is a PDF on AMD's site with a short list of errata, see p. 4. It is up to number 6 but they skip two numbers.

EDIT: Note: There can be missing errata numbers. Errata that have been resolved from early revisions of the processor have been deleted, and errata that have been reconsidered may have deleted or renumbered." Erasing the past?

The errata are also all for the Model 1 A1 and A2 Athlon with none noted for the current Model 2.

Here is the link to AMD:

amd.com

Select Item #22557, "AMD Athlon? Processor Revision Guide."

There are also errata sheets for the 751, 756. And Athlon 900 has a 1/3 cache divisor (not 2/5 as previously reported).
