From what I have read in this thread, the -486 flavour of 2.6.25
(testing) or 2.6.26 (unstable) should work. Could you please try to
install them on a running system and tell us if they works?
In that case, we probably need to select -486 on all CPU which have
CentaurHauls as vendor_id.
(in base-installer/kernel/i386.sh:arch_get_kernel_flavour)
