Hi Orhan, I can confirm this problem on my AMD duron which is running Gentoo. Even using vanilla sources for the kernel, or installing a binary kernel, I get the same issue. Users that have installs running in place ((for example, an old installation)) are not effected. It's just the new installs, unfortunately.
I found this out when one of my hard disks failed last week. Prior to the failure, my 1.6 server ran fine, however, upon trying to re-install, I get the illegal instruction error. I am not aware of a work around at this time.
