hello, as always: imho. (!) ... i remember already many years ago - read: 10+ years - very "common" linux distributions installation medias where provided with kernels which complained about missing the so called "CMOV" instruction - like debian / ubuntu etc. ... yes, it was easily possible to use either "specialized" distributions or even compile a kernel yourself to run on those CPUs < pentium pro/II/III + ... which meant: everything up to including pentium (MMX) and AMD K5 ... i'm not sure: did AMD K6 have those!? i don't remember, wikipedia knows more ... :) personally i don't care much about hardware which is not able to boot a "vanilla" debian installation medium for its respective hardware-architecture. just my 0.02€
