<h3><a name="intro">Introduction</a></h3>
|
|
|
|
<p>This page contains information about the FreeBSD/i386 platform.
|
|
This architecture supports the largest variety of CPUs since
|
|
most home users purchase these machines. If you have a machine
|
|
from any large PC company (such as Dell™, HP, or eMachines®)
|
|
chances are that you have either an AMD™ or Intel® CPU and thus
|
|
fall into this category.</p>

<li><p>FreeBSD 6.0 and newer no longer supports the original
|
|
Intel 80386 CPU; these computers are over seven years
|
|
old and are only supported by FreeBSD 5.X and earlier. Note that the
|
|
GENERIC kernel only supports 80386 CPUs in FreeBSD 4.X and earlier.
