IDO

 

According to the official requirements:

 

Minimum: Pentium-class

[Ido]

what release will work fine on P2?

standart P2

[znx]

Snipping the important bits:

 

"Fedora Core 4 is optimized for Pentium 4 CPUs"

This means that they expect you to be using P4's as that is the default that they use to prepare the RPMs. 

"but also supports earlier CPUs"

 

This means that any of the so called x86 (sometimes called i386) CPUs will work with it. So yes your Pentium II is fine and will work with it, you will just experiement some performance loss.
