is there an easy way to figure out for which processor a kernel was
compiled? I.e., on my laptop (Pentium MMX), I have
kernel-2.4.18-24.8.0.i386 and kernel-2.4.18-18.8.0.i586 .



rpm -q --qf '%{arch} \n' kernel



That only gives the arch of the latest installed kernel.


That may be what Michael wanted, but is there a way to find out what arch the currently running kernel was built for?

What about an arbitrary kernel in /boot, can you determine what arch it's for?

I could have a custom kernel in /boot, but not remember if it was i386, i686, or athlon.
How can I tell?
