Hi There,
I am just about to install sarge onto a dual xeon (Nocona 800MHz FSB)
server... and just checking the kernel with 'atp-cache search
kernel-image'. Im wanting to use the 2.6 kernel... so would this be the
correct kernel-image?:
kernel-image-2.6.8-1-686 - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.8 on
PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/PIV.
If you'd run it in 32bit mode, yes. Since it's a dual processor, get
the SMP-enabled kernel
If you're to run it in 64bit mode, you'd need to get the kernel
compiled with amd64-generic/ em64t support (preferrably the
SMP-enabled ones), then use the debian-amd64 port.
