Bug Description

Binary package hint: firefox

Package: firefox
Ubuntu release:
  Description: Ubuntu 10.04 LTS
  Release: 10.04
Package version: 3.6.3+nobinonly-0ubuntu4

I use e-Box 3310 with vortex86dx cpu (http://www.vortex86dx.com/?page_id=197) as a thin client. When i try to start local firefox (installed in chroot i386) i get this:
>firefox
Illegal instruction

I built ff from source with CFLAGS="-O2 -march=i486" and CXXFLAGS="-O2 -march=i486", but this didn't help me. The error was the same.
