Reason is that people use secure kernel in firewalls, and people have firewalls that are Pentiums with only 32/64MB of RAM. Porblem is that a i686 kernel don't run in a Pentium. If someone really thinks that it should be High Memory, I can put back high memory support. Notice that the machine specification will be redone for Mandrake cooker, perhaps something like: - i586 - i686 - i686SMP - i686-4GB - i686-SMP-4GB - BOOT and now, I need to find a place where to put a secure kernel. Suggestions are welcome. Notice that this are my ideas, I know that rest of mandrake also agrees that we need to change the versions, what hasn't still be agreed is _which_ ones are we going to support. Making SMP versions to work only in i686 & upper is a good move because Pentium support for multiprocessing is quite bad, and anyways, there is almost no i586 SMP boards (comparing with i686/athlon boards).
