I tried install 4.4 on an old Via 800mhz box. i386 of course. The installer dies pretty quick. I thought the via was i386 compatible? Is there something special to do.

I think those VIA boxes are one of the reasons, that there is an i586 kernel in CentOS. Choose that at install time ...

Yes, i have same problem with VIA cpu and centos 4.3 , using i586 kernel installation no problem .
I use via cpu + 512 mb memory and centos 4.3, turn off apmd just for squid and internet sharing without problem ( if apmd turn on , sometimes it lock up)
I use via cpu + 1 GB mem and cent os 4.3 , it is not stable for mail server qmail , spamassasin , bayes , clamd . i don't know the lock up reason every several hour / day . maybe failure mainboard .. i change to Intel 805D and activate SMP , and no lock up until now.
