Summary: parted crashes due to "illegal instruction"

Initial Comment:
BACKGROUND:
============
I am using BOEL, busybox, etc. from
systemimager-i386boot-standard-3.2.0-4.noarch.rpm

The target boot station is a VIA EPIA x86 based system,
which has been running plain vanilla Redhat 9 for quite
some time.

Because this class of VIA EPIA motherboard is PXE
enabled, I am interested in being able to load a full
system image on it via SIS. 

PROOF I GOT SIS SETUP RIGHT:
==============================
I got the CD based boot working on another class of VIA
EPIA machine with a slightly different x86 processor.

However, this specific machine, after it boots, gets
through PXE, Syslinux, etc. and gets BOEL running,
stops after encountering an "illegal instruction" in
/sbin/parted. The process stops at that point and drops
into the busybox "#" prompt.

HYPOTHESIS:
I suspect/hope it should be possible to build
BOEL/busybox with a more generic set of switches. 
** I did not have any problem  installing the same RH9
binary distribution across any of my VIA EPIA machines
** - so this should not be a "different architecture"
problem.

I am hoping for a new systemimager-i386boot-standard
rpm with BOEL/Busybox that is more x86 generic.
