i586 or i686

Those of you playing with Fedora 11. Is your kernel i586 or i686? Mine is i586 although there was no indication that I was downloading one or the other when I got the Alpha ISO.

Thanks Bob. That's all I need to see. Same as mine. I thought that I somehow got the wrong ISO.

Stefan, it's obvious that you've got it all wrong. Please reinstall immediately!

shinaj , you should open a new thread for your question in the appropriate part of the forum.

x86_64 shows, that it is made for a 64bit processor (mostyl duo core) and not the the 32 bit one (i586 or i386)
