Re: Is i686 dead and gone??
x86 is an alternative architecture now. You'll need to download the proper ISO file to install the OS on 32 bit hardware. Here's a mirror which contains the proper ISO files. http://mirror.math.princeton.edu/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/ On 01/01/2018 02:12 PM, Beartooth wrote: > I have a Thinkpad T42 which I haven't used for so long I don't > remember what's on it.

When I try to boot it, it complains that it can't, and asks me to use a "kernel appropriate for your CPU." My main purpose is to get it usable again, preferably with Fedora 27, if that's possible.

Sorry for asking the obvious but http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Category:T42 says you have a Pentium M. Did you download the i386 iso?

Is i686 dead and gone??
I have a Thinkpad T42 which I haven't used for so long I don't remember what's on it. When I try to boot it, it complains that it can't, and asks me to use a "kernel appropriate for your CPU." My main purpose is to get it usable again, preferably with Fedora 27, if that's possible. (I run F27 on all our other machines.) I'd prefer to examine it first, if there's a way. If I run a USB cable between it and a F27 PC, can I then mount it as if it were a storage medium and display the contents?? Fwiw, it mounted and opened UBCD; but when I chose "CPU Info" from UBCD's menu, it flashed up something about "stress" -- and then went black. -- Beartooth Staffwright, Not Quite Clueless Power User Remember I know little (precious little!) of where up is. ___ users mailing list -- users@lists.fedoraproject.org To unsubscribe send an email to users-le...@lists.fedoraproject.org
