I have a fairly modern Desktop PC with two Intel Xeon X5690 Processors. It
appears the default install of Wheezy installed a 32-bit kernel, because qemu
will not allow me to allocate more than 2047MB of RAM. How can I verify that
is the case, and if so, can anyone point me to anything that might help me
understand how to get a 64-bit kernel? Do I just need to select the correct
ARCH (which I'm getting ready to try in the meantime)?
What's the output of
dpkg --print-architecture
dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
[my-desktop:~]$ dpkg --print-architecture
i386
[my-desktop:~]$ dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
[my-desktop:~]$
I assume, after a quick search of man dpkg, that I should probably add the
correct architecture? Or is this telling us that I installed from the i386
netinst iso (which I did), and that I need to re-install from the amd64?
AFAIK you have to reinstall with
http://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/wheezy_di_beta4/amd64/iso-cd/debian-wheezy-DI-b4-amd64-netinst.iso
Because adding a foreign architecture is only for adding its libraries
to run some applications, not for running its kernel.
