A Pentium III processor should handle i686 fine.
i386 = original 386 i486 = one of the 486 variants i586 = original Pentium, AND K5, some stripped-down later processors i686 = Pentium II and above, AMD K6 and above amd64/emt64/x84_64 = 64-bit capable processors [1]
[1] These can also run i686 packages. Unless you have a single application that needs more than 3.5GiB of address space, i686 is probably a better choice.

Thanks Boyd, Another related issue is that my target machine is offline. The only machine I have online is a Microsoft Windows machine. iso images are great as they are standard across os. Is there a way to obtain the opensuse oss files as an iso image so that I can burn on a windows machine to install on the target machine?
