| 7 | This is the processor type of your CPU. This information is |
| 8 | used for optimizing purposes. In order to compile a kernel |
| 9 | that can run on all supported x86 CPU types (albeit not |
| 10 | optimally fast), you can specify "486" here. |
| 11 | |
| 12 | Note that the 386 is no longer supported, this includes |
| 13 | AMD/Cyrix/Intel 386DX/DXL/SL/SLC/SX, Cyrix/TI 486DLC/DLC2, |
| 14 | UMC 486SX-S and the NexGen Nx586. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | The kernel will not necessarily run on earlier architectures than |
| 17 | the one you have chosen, e.g. a Pentium optimized kernel will run on |
| 18 | a PPro, but not necessarily on a i486. |
| 19 | |
| 20 | Here are the settings recommended for greatest speed: |
| 21 | - "486" for the AMD/Cyrix/IBM/Intel 486DX/DX2/DX4 or |
| 22 | SL/SLC/SLC2/SLC3/SX/SX2 and UMC U5D or U5S. |
| 23 | - "586" for generic Pentium CPUs lacking the TSC |
| 24 | (time stamp counter) register. |
| 25 | - "Pentium-Classic" for the Intel Pentium. |
| 26 | - "Pentium-MMX" for the Intel Pentium MMX. |
| 27 | - "Pentium-Pro" for the Intel Pentium Pro. |
| 28 | - "Pentium-II" for the Intel Pentium II or pre-Coppermine Celeron. |
| 29 | - "Pentium-III" for the Intel Pentium III or Coppermine Celeron. |
| 30 | - "Pentium-4" for the Intel Pentium 4 or P4-based Celeron. |
| 31 | - "K6" for the AMD K6, K6-II and K6-III (aka K6-3D). |
| 32 | - "Athlon" for the AMD K7 family (Athlon/Duron/Thunderbird). |
| 33 | - "Opteron/Athlon64/Hammer/K8" for all K8 and newer AMD CPUs. |
| 34 | - "Crusoe" for the Transmeta Crusoe series. |
| 35 | - "Efficeon" for the Transmeta Efficeon series. |
| 36 | - "Winchip-C6" for original IDT Winchip. |
| 37 | - "Winchip-2" for IDT Winchips with 3dNow! capabilities. |
| 38 | - "AMD Elan" for the 32-bit AMD Elan embedded CPU. |
| 39 | - "GeodeGX1" for Geode GX1 (Cyrix MediaGX). |
| 40 | - "Geode GX/LX" For AMD Geode GX and LX processors. |
| 41 | - "CyrixIII/VIA C3" for VIA Cyrix III or VIA C3. |
| 42 | - "VIA C3-2" for VIA C3-2 "Nehemiah" (model 9 and above). |
| 43 | - "VIA C7" for VIA C7. |
| 44 | - "Intel P4" for the Pentium 4/Netburst microarchitecture. |
| 45 | - "Core 2/newer Xeon" for all core2 and newer Intel CPUs. |
| 46 | - "Intel Atom" for the Atom-microarchitecture CPUs. |
| 47 | - "Generic-x86-64" for a kernel which runs on any x86-64 CPU. |
| 48 | |
| 49 | See each option's help text for additional details. If you don't know |
| 50 | what to do, choose "486". |
