VirtualBox lets you pretty much mix&match guest and host (including 64bit guest on 32bit host) but especially the latter requires hardware virtualization capabilities in the CPU. Its easier to just have everybody run 32bit guests. We can build a 64bit guest, but in any case we should point everybody to the 32bit version. > -- To post to this group, send an email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send an email to sage-devel+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URL: http://www.sagemath.org
