what is the minimal suitable CPU type for openSUSE Tumbleweed (I know that i586 is deprecated / less supported, but I guess there is still a "minimal viable target system" for it)?
I updated a Pentium-M (Dothan, probably) based Toughbook CF-51 and after finding that I need "rodata=off" kernel parameter for the kernel to even boot, it fails miserably later in userspace apparently (it just hangs).
I have since updated the Athlon machine to TW du jour (so from 20220308 -> 20220428), no rodata=off was needed for 20220428 on the Athlon. You mentioned it's fixed in Kernel:HEAD, but I do not immediately find in the suse-kernel git log anything about rodata in 2022. I have a hang on poweroff now, oh well.
