Linux Mandrake 6.0 is said to be optimized for Pentium-type processors.
This means that it was compiled using pgcc instead of gcc, correct?  So if I
wanted to compile a custom kernel (i.e. include NTFS support) I'm guessing
that I should use pgcc instead of gcc, to keep the optimizations.
    On a side note, could I do the opposite to install 6.0 on a 386/486?  I
mean, install 6.0, including kernel sources, then boot off a floppy with a
non-optimized kernel, and recompile the kernel using gcc?

Also, was anything else done to Mandrake to optimize it for Pentium
processors?
