The comment on the change is:
add something about not booting on i586

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  
  There are three live images available for Fedora 7:
  
-  1. Fedora 7 i386 Desktop CD.  This is a CD sized image for i386 machines.  It includes the GNOME desktop environment, integrates all supported Fedora locales, and features a basic set of productivity applications.
+  1. Fedora 7 i686 Desktop CD.  This is a CD sized image for i686 machines.  It includes the GNOME desktop environment, integrates all supported Fedora locales, and features a basic set of productivity applications.
   1. Fedora 7 x86_64 Desktop DVD.  This is a DVD sized image for x86_64 machines.  The feature set is the same as in the i386 Desktop CD and includes multilib packages. 
-  1. Fedora 7 i386 KDE Desktop CD.  This is a CD sized image for i386 machines.  It includes the KDE Desktop environment and a large set of KDE applications.  Note that this image only has full support for English language. 
+  1. Fedora 7 i686 KDE Desktop CD.  This is a CD sized image for i686 machines.  It includes the KDE Desktop environment and a large set of KDE applications.  Note that this image only has full support for English language. 
  
  Note that GNOME based Live images do not include the '''Openoffice.org''' office suite to save space.  Instead they include '''Abiword''' and support for more locales. The KDE Live CD uses parts of `koffice` instead. The Fedora Live images do not support i586 class machines.  To install Fedora on an i586, you must use the classic installation method.
  
  === Usage Information ===
  
  The Live images should boot on any machine that supports booting from CD-ROM.  Upon booting the CD, you can log in and use the desktop environment as the `fedora` user. Leave the password prompt blank to login. The Live images do not automatically login so users can select a preferred language. After logging in, if you wish to install the contents of the live image to your hard drive, click on the '''Install to Hard Drive''' icon on the desktop.
+ 
+ NOTE: The i686 Live images will not boot on an i586 machine.
  
  === USB Booting ===
