read the release notes. test1 won't work on anything < 686
due to a screw up on our part. This was unintentional, and will
be fixed in test2.

Note

      Due to a mistake made at build-time, the ISO images for Fedora Core
      1.90 Test 1 include support for i686-class processors only, meaning
      that it will not be possible to boot Anaconda on systems with Intel
      Pentium, older AMD, or VIA processors.

      Note that this problem affects the bootability of the ISO images only;
      it is possible to upgrade non-i686 systems by configuring yum or
      up2date to pull packages from rawhide.
