    jackb_guppy had some positive experiences with an old release or LFS. [soylentnews.org]

    I found PUPPY 4.3.1 works well, or build a GENTOO

    Later builds which required the CPU to support CMOV bombed out. [soylentnews.org]

    AMD K5 and K6 claimed to be i686-compliant but that was marketing hype.
    Your chip suffers from the same sort of dishonest specsmanship

    ...and it appears that guy stopped participating here over a year ago. [soylentnews.org]

    .
    BTW, does CMC circa 1985 stir any memories?
