I have an AMD K6-II. "uname -a" identifies it as i586.

That may say more about what processor your kernel was compiled for than
what processor it's actually running on. Does /proc/cpuinfo get it right?
/proc/cpuinfo identifies AMD K6(tm) 3D processor. The kernel I'm using
is 2.4.9 compiled for i386. When I tried the stock 2.4.9-k6 kernel-image
package or compiled the kernel for k6 myself, I was never able to get
the kernels to boot. I'm running woody by the way.
