Hi There,
I have a dual processor server with 2 x 2.8GHz processors which
supports EM64T. Currently i am running kernel 2.6.8-9-em64t-p4-smp and
a "cat /proc/cpuinfo" shows 4 processors (the 2 hyperthreaded
processors).
My question is: What is the optimum kernel to be running for my setup?
Am i running the correct one?
This is a mail server that has debian sarge installed and runs
dbmail/amavis/postfix and supplies incoming and outgoing mail for our
clients - is there even a reason here to run a EM64T kernel in this
case?
Thanks
Simon
No, you're not running the right kernel - 2.6.8-9 is very old, and has
security flaws in it. If you stick with sarge, update your kernel to
kernel-image-2.6.8-12-em64t-p4-smp - or more generally, install the
kernel-image-2.6-em64t-p4-smp metapackage
