I'm not sure you can trust the output of uname to tell you what kernel

if the CPU is i686. Or am I wrong?
cat /proc/version
will say SMP for i686 and .. err.. something else... (i586?) for i586
builds. And that is coming straight out of the kernel itself.
Another way:
modinfo ext3
should show i686 as part of the vermagic near the end.
