I noticed the 4.7+ installers have an option for i586, but there seems to be a lot of conflicting info about whether the non-i586 install is i386 or i686. Any idea? I've heard that CentOS 5 is i686 despite claiming to be i386, but I can't find any concrete info about whether that's true of 4.x as well.
