Actually, no it isn't. But is it really needed in 2012 to support using a non-SMP i486 kernel on Slackware? I'm thinking it isn't, and considering dropping this on the x86 IA32 side, where about the most minimal instruction set likely to be encountered these days is an Atom or something along those lines. Thoughts appreciated on this! Perhaps a thread on LinuxQuestions.org? - Pat
