I don't have that option in my /etc/default/grub file.

comment How to correctly set up the right GRUB 2 default menu entry?
I don't know why, but it seems it doesn't work. I set GRUB_DEFAULT=3 as you said, then re-run grub2-mkconfig. But at boot time the default entry is still vmlinuz-3.7.4-gentoo-third.

comment dd: How do I know if it's still working?
This might be helpful for the next time, but it won't help the OP to understand if the current command is frozen or not.

comment Which “Processor family” to choose under “Processor type and features”?
@warl0ck: It seems to me that the phrase "Newer ones have 6 and older ones 15" refers to Xeon CPUs only. The OP has a Pentium processor instead. Since Pentium is neither Xeon nor Core 2, I think CONFIG_MCORE2 is not the correct option to enable. Unfortunately I don't know which is the correct one.
