The i686 architecture is fully backward-compatible with the i386 architecture, meaning that any software that runs on an i386 system will also run on an i686 system.
i686 is the 32-bit version, and x86_64 is the 64-bit version of the OS. The 64-bit version will scale with memory better, particularly for workloads like large...
The P6 microarchitecture is the sixth-generation Intel x86 microarchitecture, implemented by the Pentium Pro microprocessor that was introduced in November 1995.
Örneğin: Intel Pentium, Intel Core2Duo, AMD K6. ix86 yıllardan beri var, 2000'den sonra bir işlemciniz varsa, muhtemelen en azından i686 komut setine sahip.
The 64-bit version is better for memory-intensive processes, but the 32-bit version is acceptable for most uses. Can we install i686 package on x86_64?
