Hi,
I have just noticed a little mistake on http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Official_Arch_Linux_Install_Guide#Archit...
It is written : "A Pentium II or AMD K6-2 processor or higher is required."
In fact, AMD K6 series (1, 2 & 3) are i586 CPUs (lack of cmov instruction to be qualified as i686). Arch is only installable on K7 (Athlon) or higher.
Another little thing : Pentium II wasn't the first i686 Intel CPU. It was the Pentium Pro. But it's not very important. (rare CPU compared to the Pentium II)
Thanks for your great work ;)
