Anyway, I have moved our notes/status page to: http://wiki.centos.org/Projects/CentOS5PentiumSupport
This should provide some information to interested people about what is done, and what needs to be done.
If you want, add a section on that page of users willing to test this. I'm definitely willing and have two VIA C3 based systems I can test with. Don't believe I have any i586 hardware but could dig around.
Is there a mantis bug that will be used for tracking this? I think I've subscribed myself to that wiki page, but would like to keep "in the loop" if possible.
I think it would be best if this becomes a project in its own respect on projects.centos.org. The page I referred to, as well as other relevant information could be hosted there.
But to make this an official subproject, we need somebody who is willing to lead it. I am willing to serve as a devteam member on such subproject, and it seems Karanbir is as well. I can also work on the Anaconda issues, but currently I just don't have the time to coordinate this.
So, if you know how to customize specfiles, a bit of gcc flag tweaking, and possibly some Python, and sorely need CentOS 5 for i586 on your VIA or legacy boxes, speak up :).
Take care, Daniel
