I am currently running Sid, 32-bit with recent i686 32 bit kernels. Here is my cpu: ~$ lscpu Architecture: i686 CPU op-mode(s): 32-bit, 64-bit CPU(s): 2 Thread(s) per core: 2 Core(s) per socket: 1 CPU socket(s): 1 Vendor ID: GenuineIntel CPU family: 15 Model: 4 Stepping: 3 CPU MHz: 3000.282 L1d cache: 16K L2 cache: 2048K
Should I go to a 64-bit kernel? Benefits vs. Risks? Will 64bit enable kvm functionality on this box? Will this work with existing packages which could then be changed to 64 bit piecemeal or if taking the plunge, must/should redo everything? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
