badram patch for amd64?

Hi all, Has anybody ported the badram kernel patch to amd64? I tried applying the patch but the files init.c, page.h, Kconfig, and defconfig were only patched in the i386 sub-trees. Memtest consistently reports a single bit error for my DDR400 DIMM and being able to tell the kernel to stay

selected, it wasn't something I would have chosen intentionally. :-) I've purged it and will see if this fixes the problem. Thanks for the suggestion. Joachim On Fri, 2006-02-24 at 16:45 -0800, Joachim Achtzehnter wrote: Hi all, I've been running amd64 (unstable) without too much trouble

Boot floppies?

Hi all, Is there an easy way to get the amd64 installation started from boot floppies? My system has no IDE CD-ROM drive and booting mini.iso from my SCSI CD-ROM drive fails: ISOLINUX 3.11 2005-09-02 isolinux: Failed to locate CD-ROM device; boot failed. It seems that the SCSI BIOS
