Hi, folks. Building a CentOS-5 Kernel for 586 machines is a quite simple way by enabling i586 in the spec file, adding the kabi information and creating a debug configuration for i586. Glibc and openssl for i586 rebuilds out of the box. Is there a convenient way for CentOS to maintaining i586 for version 5.1+ as it was done on CentOS-4? I have seen already an i586 Kernel for CentOS 5.0 in the plus repository - but I would like to know what problems occurred causing a discontinuing. I've made a patch for the kernel srpm (working on 2.6.18-53.el5 up to 2.6.18-53.1.6.el5) enabling rebuilding for the i586 target. CentOS 5.1 successfully runs on a Pentium 1 (tested: 200 MHz, 64MB RAM). (AMD-K6 should run, too.) The motivation is that some i586 class routers running CentOS-3 which should be replaced with 5. The patch is located at: http://dbl76.tfh-berlin.de/~s18009/c5/special/kernel-2.6.18-xxx.march_i586.el5.src.patch BS
