I have Centos 4.4 i386 installed an on i686.
I tried making a mini-test live cd based on this install that just starts bash but it only works on i686 machines and not i586.

I only have i386 glibc and all other packages are i386. I copied all of the necessary .so files. I even manually compiled bash using -march=i386 & -mtune=i386 but it will only run on i686.



what kernel do you have installed ?


we dont have a i386 kernel in centos-4, and afaik you cant make the el kernel build for i386 without major changes and dropping a lot of the patches.

also, i am going to ignore your emails if you continue to top post :)

Hi KB

I promise not to top post anymore :)
Do you know why the problem I'm describing could be happening?
All other packages I have are i386.
I've taken the binary from bash i386 and I did ldd
I copied all relevant files to the livecd but it only works on i686.

I even force upgraded to glibc.i386 since some of the bash libraries were from glibc.i686

My only thought is that maybe libc.so.6 is the problem.
I did copy the libc.so.6 from the i386 into that i686 directory and overwrote it just to be sure but it still won't work.

Thank you for your help it is much appreciated.

Below is the ldd of the standard bash binary from Centos
======================================
ldd /bin/bash
       libtermcap.so.2 => /lib/libtermcap.so.2 (0x0083e000)
       libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x007d4000)
       libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/i686/libc.so.6 (0x006be000)
       /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x006a7000)
