| Considering that all processors which have been released under the Celeron brand would support either, i686 is probably the answer you seek. |

Without knowing the actual core name, it is tough to tell. However, I agree with desultory that it is most likely an i686.

The first celeron was based on the pentium II, which was i686. |

You're definitely right.
