   Hi.
   I just wanted to know if Slitaz is able to run on structures below i686.
   Ubuntu a while ago dropped anything below that.
   But I know Debian does this.
   I'm just wondering if I can use Slitaz 4.0 on my old i586 :)

   We just moved up to i486 from i386 for SliTaz 4, so it should still run on an i586 systems. Not so sure about which architecture SliTaz Cooking is using at the moment though.

   By the way,
   Ubuntu, Debian... SliTaz not based on any of them.
   Not the first time it is mentioned that SliTaz is based on Debian. Who told you that? ;)

   hi jpxsat

   yes it does, but at the moment you have to stay with 3.0, because 4.0 has a bug in glibc - 5.0 will work again.
