Dripping with sarcasm or truly thankful? Personally, compiling the kernel for an i586 vs. an i686 would benefit many users and don't see why it's not being considered.
Yeah HTMLSpinnr, you are right on this! I think without implementing i586 support they kick out a lot of home license users. But maybe thats the whole plan!?

to Overnet: in my opinion my AMD K6-2 400 was fast enough... the average CPU-utilization was 15% - so why should I waste my money for newer and faster hardware (and for a higher power consumption)?
And by the way: is my Pentium II-400 that I use now and which _IS_ supported faster???

I still couldnt figure wether it is Astaro which did not implement old PI/K6 support or if it is a general kernel/middleware issue!?
I wouldnt have a clue....can anyone help me! Cause this would be very helpful who to blame! [;)]
In the case it is a kernel problem.....Hey guys there must be some Pro's out to solve a small problem like this!? Am I right? So please get into gear and help us poor old hardware users!
I've just installed the ASL 4.0 ISO from the Astaro ftp site on a Cyrix P266 PC. It installed fine - perhaps Pentium's are still supported in the ASL v4 code ?
HMMM Maybe it will work on my epia 800mhz.... It is a cyrix based processor. The last beta did not work, but perhaps this will. I think I will Download it and see. [:S]
I've just tried to install asl 4.0 on my P166 and it install ok, but it doesn't startup... failed to remount old initrd... same as betas next I installed smoothwall... so see ya astaro it was nice to work with you, and smoothwall also has comercial products which is great.....
No, zaga, NO. Don't go to the dark side! If you do, can you send me what you've got for that shell script for snort? I think perhaps I'll use my old P166 as a snort-inline bridge. We'll see.
it installed fine, but it wouldn't boot. It hangs on freeing unsed memory 76k..... This is not cool. I guess it is time to move on, it wouldn't appear that Astaro will support EPIA platforms w/ C3 processors. [:(]
