Sure. I just gave i686 as the example since that's already the
baseline in 90% of the remaining x86-32 distros. Slackware, ALT
and Mageia are notable exceptions that target i586, and some
others already have separate installers for i486 and i686.
The i586 distros all seem to have separate SMP/PAE kernels in
addition to the minimal i586.
