Invalid configuration `i686-unknown-linux': machine `i686-unknown' not recognized I tried changing occurrences of i[345]86 to i[3456]86 in config.guess and in config.sub, but that didn't help. I was able to force it with configure --host=i586-unknown-linux Perhaps a more general solution could be found so that this doesn't break every time Intel revs the Pentium?
