Probably you are tired to see tons of questions like this, but...Well, the 686 kernel is for 686 CPUs (which the amd64 is not). Also,
I have two new servers coming for a critical mission application. My
question is simple, will sarge i386 port (32 bit only) runs fine under
an AMD64 X2?
For example, if I install kernel 2.6.8-k7-smp it will see 2 CPUs?
Which 32 bit kernel runs better under AMD64 architure, 686 or k7?
the k7 kernel is for 32 bit Athlon CPUs (which the amd64 is not). You
need a k8 kernel, specifically. Of course, if you run a kernel with SMP
enabled, and you have more than one processor, you will see more than
one processer.
