Re: AMD 64 CPU Chip Selection Question
They all use exactly the same core, give or take some L2 cache, only that X2
and Opteron >= 165 sport two cores, so an SMP-kernel makes a lot of sense
there. Same for Turion64, Athlon64, Sempron64, Opteron.
Use an AMD64 kernel, with or without smp depending on core count. Depending on
the chipset I suggest 2.6.8 for sarge and AMD8000 chipset, for all newer
chipsets 2.6.12+ from unstable, for dual core the spanking newest kernel you
can get (see older thread below), eg. there's a 2.6.15 kernel in unstable.
