Re: [Fwd: ia64 netinstboot image]
It seems like a half of this maillist traffic is generated by people
mistakingly trying to use ia64 instead of x86-64 version. And I have
to admit that compared to the rest of the internet this is pretty good
error ratio :)
Probably the ia64 port should be named something like "ipf" or
"itanium" to avoid confusion. After all, ia64 is no longer the
official name for the architecture AFAIK, and I think the change was
caused by the same reason.
