yes you are very likely right ... I've found relevant info here: http://www.redhat.com/software/rhel/features/
.......... Support for multiple architectures: Intel X86, Intel Itanium, AMD AMD64 and IBM zSeries, POWER Series, and S/390. (With Update 2, delivered in May 2004, support for Intel EM64T was added) ..........
K6 is NOT mentioned... but on other side RHEL supports X86 and K6 is i586 architecture ( which belongs to X86)

I've downloaded CentOS, baked CDs and start installing it on one old 450MHz AMD K6 based box with 392MB of RAM.
To my regret, CentOS refused to load (to be installed).
The message on the screen was something along this line: "Your architecture is not supported"
I am sure that this is NOT CentoOS fault. It seems to me that RH does NOT support K6 CPU.
Is my statement (conclusion) true ?
