What about k8-smp?
Do we still need non-SMP kernels in the age of hyperthreading,
multi-core CPUs, and preemption?

Newer GCCs produce AMD64 code which is supposed to be closed to
optimal to what GCC can produce on EM64T. Does it

I would suggest keeping the name amd64-generic. It is easier for users
to see that -generic fits all than -k8.
It's also easier to reintroduce split packages if necessary.

Hello,
with 2.6.17-final, I am going to drop the amd64-generic flavour.
The reason is simple: On amd64, the linux-2.6 package has 11 flavours
in total, which is way too much. The build takes over 5 hours currently,
as each flavour takes approx. 30 minutes on my 2GHz opteron.
I want to get rid

Looking at the 2.6.16 sources, it appears that CONFIG_CPU_GENERIC sets
all the cache size options of CONFIG_MSPC (em64t), and the only other
difference is that CPU_GENERIC doesn't set -march at all. So

It does, at least on the original nocona xeons, I tested it myself.
