Looks like to me that the kernel name speaks for it self..




As you have an P. MMX processor you probably want to run an i586 kernel

Just stumbled over something:

is there an easy way to figure out for which processor a kernel was
compiled? I.e., on my laptop (Pentium MMX), I have
kernel-2.4.18-24.8.0.i386 and kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0.i586 .

uname -rmpi gives me

2.4.18-24.8.0 i586 i586 i386

and

2.4.18-18.8.0 i586 i586 i386

respectively, so that doesn't seem to be the way.

Looking into the /boot/config*'s for CONFIG_Mx86=y is not too elegant. Is there any other way?

Cheers,

Michael
