None of the RHEL branches support any processors that are < i686 for the
i386 arch.
CentOS supports i586 in centOS-3 and CentOS-4 (things not in RHEL) ..
and only i686 in CentOS-2 and CentOS-5 (just like RHEL).
So, NO ... and i586 processor will not run CentOS-5.

doing some research ... this is a pentium mmx compatible chip, which is
i586 ... you can use CentOS-4 on there.
I just tried my old centos 4.4 i386 disk 1
did "linux text mem=128M" and the same thing.
after vmlinuz.., and initrd... it just resets.
Am I not boot with the correct options to get the 386 kernel and its
trying to use the 686 kernel?
Thanks,
Jerry
