Even that might not be worth it. Unless you're using something that
benefits from the new instructions in the FXes, or requires the last .1%
performance, a single install on an Athlon and copy onto the remaining 5
systems will give you more time for something else. From a support point of
view the consistency can be a win. Just remember to specify the Althlon64
CPU type in the kernel config, but with 8 cores max.
For the hardware, just select a superset of the two systems requirements in
your kernel config. If you build as modules any superfluous code wont even
be loaded.
