dude.... the i686 kernel works fine on P-2 / P-3 / P-4. there is _no_
code in CentOS3/i386 and CentOS4/i386 that wont run on a machine that is
an i686 Arch type.
Unless you are talking about P-4's with EM64T / x8664. But I presume,
knowing the system is a P-3, Tom didnt install x86_64 on there.
( I dont think you would even see the grub prompt in that case, but I
havent tried running a x86_64 OS on a P-3 )
