New Opteron Installation

[Pär Ekstrand <pe@mech.kth.se>]

Hi,

I have bought an Opteron system with the following,

Tyan Thunder K8W Motherboard
2 x AMD Opteron 242
4 x 1Gb DIMM DDR 333MHz Reg ECC
2 x MAXTOR DIAMONDMAX PLUS-9 ATA/133 Disks
A Simple PCI Grafic Card

I have intstalled Sarge, with 2.4.22-1-386 kernel today.

I would like to try to install a 64 bit Kernel and a 32/64 chroot 
environment.

Is this an updated way to do it ?

Should a I use the 2.6.0 kernel ?

And get things from
