Has anyone successfully installed > debian AMD64 on a Microsoft's Virtual PC 2007? That is probably a question that should be asked to Microsoft. However, does Virtual PC virtualize the host CPU? Is your host OS 64-bit? If your host OS is not 64-bit, then there is probably not an easy way to virtualize the CPU in such a way that you can use a 64-bit OS on it. In that case, you probably want to use QEMU, which will emulate the CPU entirely. Performance is not as good, but it allows you to run a 64-bit guest on a 32-bit host. Regards, -Roberto -- Roberto C.

According to the Python docs [0], dl only works with a number of
conditions:
Note: This module will not work unless sizeof(int) == sizeof(long) ==
sizeof(char *) If this is not the case, SystemError will be raised on
import.
If you run this program on an amd64 machine:
$ cat sizes.c
#include
int main(void) {
printf("int: %d; long: %d; char *: %d\n", sizeof(int), sizeof(long),
sizeof(char *));
return 0;
}
This is what you get:
$ ./a.out
int: 4; long: 8; char *: 8
So, the answer is that the dl module will not work on amd64. The
recommended fix would then be to not use dl, since it is an ugly hack
(as is any foreign function interface) and instead write proper Python
bindings for whatever library you are trying to access.

The recommendation to not directly connect an Etch or Sid box to the 'net is given so that people will not blindly go about connecting to the 'net and thinking that they are perfectly safe. Now, it is probably safer to connect a Sid box (packages take from 2 to 10 days to migrate from unstable to testing, even for security fixes).

However, I won't upgrade a production server until the full freeze has been announced. Even then, I will only upgrade machines which I do not consider to be critical.

One of the goals of the amd64 porting team was that although the Sarge release would be treated as unoffcial by the Debian project, everything would be just the same as though it were a stable release. Today, the only functional difference is that the sources.list entries do not point to official mirrors for Sarge. > - Does AMD64 port of sarge use the same code as i386 port of sarge? So > the AMD64 port is as stable and reliable as i386 port? Yes, it uses the same code. However, this is what can make the amd64 port *less* stable and complete than the i386 port. The primary reason is that there is still a great deal of code out there that is not 64-bit clean. However, this is no different than the situation encountered with all the non-i386 architectures supported by Debian. > - Are here somebody who use this port on Intel servers for a long time? > Not personally. -Roberto -- Roberto C.
