how can you tell if it's booting the 32-bit kernel or 64-bit kernel? btw, i am not a complete idiot. i wrote code 40+y ago, in fortran G and IBM Turbo assembler (one step above 1s and 0s). at the time, i had a moderate understanding of system level computing. but i haven't done anything like that since. i tended to focus on what computers could do for me, rather than the reverse. if you've ever written code, you know how tedious it can be. thankfully some folks seem to like it. just not me. i try to ignore the nuts and bolts if at all possible.
