Ok, I have to correct my post. Haven't read carefully your response. Yes, the most distributions use i686 only kernel. That's not the problem if userspace is compiled with generic x86 support (you can prepare your own kernel before the installation), but might be the problem if some packages use i686 specific instructions.
