To make it consistent for 32-bit intel platforms. There are very few differences in the instruction set between i486 and later. Building for an i686 would probably break if run on an i486 and there would be no significant performance improvements. -- Bruce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
