The livecd is built so that 486 machines and above can use it. Use this for the uname hint. I even think the livecd comes with a module to load for specifying what arch you want. http://www.stockwith.uklinux.net/hints/ -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/livecd FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
