It's an AMD chip.
Very interesting is what mine says. I have a true Intel Pentium processor. /proc/cpuinfo shows: processor : 0 cpu : 586 model : Pentium 75+ vendor_id : GenuineIntel stepping : 5 fdiv_bug : no hlt_bug : no fpu : yes fpu_exception : yes cpuid : yes wp : yes flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 bogomips : 39.73 and HOSTTYPE=i486 (!) the arch command says it is an i586. What is wrong here that sets the HOSTTYPE variable to the wrong value?
