It seems there is some confusion in Hardware compatibility list, all distributions upto 8.0 were marked as "Compatible" for 80386, 80486 and 5x86 processors. For RHL 8.0 I asked maintainer to mark these processors as "Not supported" and he changed it, but all previous releases are still marked as compatible, e.g.: http://hardware.redhat.com/hcl/?pagename=details&hid=3399 http://hardware.redhat.com/hcl/?pagename=details&hid=2869 etc....
