Both kernel images run on both CPU families. We do not have (yet) the need of a 486 style legacy package, as both amd and intel CPUs support the same instruction set from a kernel point of view. The only real difference between the flavors is cache alignment. Best regards Frederik Schueler -- ENOSIG
