$ grep CONFIG_M.86 installcd-2.6.17.config 
# CONFIG_M386 is not set
CONFIG_M486=y
# CONFIG_M586 is not set
# CONFIG_M586TSC is not set

The installcd has actually been i486 since 2004.3 was released.
Actually, that was probably accidental and likely my fault, but it's
been i486 since then (except for a short time as i586, which caused
problems for some i586-class machines... go figure).
