Guys,

After the recent discussion about arch working well on old hardware, I decided 
to dump a suse 10.3 install on an old AMD K6-2/450 and install arch on it. I 
downloaded the net install iso i686. I knew if it was truly i686 it wouldn't 
install -- and it didn't.

My question is which Arch download, if any, can install on this old hardware. 
(currently a great little fax server, backup DNS/dhcp box and 40G of storage.) 
Any help (or the right link) would be appreciated.



Compile it yourself then (abs is trivial)  or if you are too lazy:
http://vectorlinux.com/ is similar to arch (slightly more slackware biased ) and runs on i386
