RE: [opensuse] i386 rpms



Would you know if the 'noarch' is a generic repository that may support i386 (piii)? I need to just be able to compile / make. This functionality is very old so I am hoping that it should work.

Worst thing is to try it but if some has already tried, it would save me from wasting time. Performance is not too much an issue on the machine.

Hi, I am trying to locate the base development rpm for an i386 machine in
opensuse.org. On the following link
http://download.opensuse.org/distribution/11.1/repo/oss/suse/

I am able to see i586, i686, ia64, noarch, setup, x86_64 supported. does
one of these subdirectories support a i386 machine?

BR, NSeto

No.

Kernel doesn't.
You might be better off to use some of small distros for i386 machine.
