Interesting.....I thought that i686 used instructions only available on 
later processors, i.e. i486 and pentium III do not have the later 
instruction set to accept compiled code for i686.....
I'm no expert, but that is why there are i386, i686 and x86_64 type 
packages to cater for various processor types.
