Zitat von Adem <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:

I found kernels for i486, i686 and K7 etc., but none for i586.
I now I can use the i486-kernel in a i586 machine,
but just curious why there is no kernel for i586?

I guess there is simply not much need for it. If you have a real legacy or some sort of embeded system use the i486, if you have a machine not older then 10 years use the i686.

OTOH the 486-kernel (tried fza only) seems to lack the
ipt_REJECT module (netfilter/iptools), and
when doing "shutdown -h now" it although halts the machine
but unfortunately does not power off the machine.
Bug or feature? :-)

Some features are lacking because no one ported it back. Maybe this module use high-res timer or the like. For the power-off : Back in the days of i486 the power-supply has no soft-off (ATX) but only a manual switch (AT) and i guess most of the others ACPI functions are missing as well on a typical i486 board from these days.

But why are you trying to use such old HW for OpenVZ ??

Regards

Andreas
