Re: [SliTaz] Slitaz on Pentium-I-MMX !?!

I saw thing like this a time ago when projects ended [45]86 processors support. Maybe is the case.

In my limited knowledge on subject, solution is recompile slitaz kernel on your machine.
In any case, I don't know how to do it. Or if Slitaz has support for Pentium or it's equivalents, like K5-6's.
Developers should have some instructions.

Gentoo's wiki should give you directions, 'cause it supports i486.

Sorry but I can't help beyond this.

Dear Slitaz community,
 
I try to get Slitaz (Rolling, lowRAM) to run on an ancient Pentium-MMX (P54M) with just 64 MB RAM.
problem: cmov instruction missing, boot aborts (in Virtualbox it otherwise runs on 64MB plus some swap)
 
Now I need help in one of following ways:
(1) Forum registration does not work with several accounts/email addresses --> can someone help?
(2) Can I somehow ( i.e.: how? where do I find docu/tutorial) cook a Slitaz-lowRAM-ISO with a 486 or Pentium-1-compliant kernel? If at all - this here is the right distro for such ancient hardware!
(3) Or - is there an archive somewhere were I could get a rolling loRAM ISO from a time when such P-1-compatible Kernels were around?
PS: 5.0-RC3-ISO does not boot due to beeing not loRAM (?)
 
Thanks already for help!
