the -k7 variants are optimized for amd processors, the -386 is running
on everything thats intel compatible since 386 (so it's more a generic
kernel) and the -686 are suggested for  
newer intels (PII,PIII, celeron, etc....). the smp flag means that this
cpu has symmetrical multiprocessing enabled, it's for systems with more
than one processor.

so if you run a celeron, the -686 series (without smp) should just fit
fine for you.
