Pentium Classic and Pentium MMX are i586 ... Pentium Pro, PII, PIII, P4,

If you select the "Minimum" install (on the package page), you will get
what we have defined as [Core] and [Base] in this file on the CD:

That file is mostly exactly like the RH one, except it has a couple
things (like yum and createrepo) that RH doesn't have.
