Virtualmin on Debian 3.1 on amd64 arch 2006/12/12 12:51  
Hello,
Cannot install virtualmin on Debian 3.1 on amd64 architecture.

The problem is that apt is using architecture string 'amd64' where virutalmin packages are stored on virtualmin server in the binary-x86_64 directory.

Besides it seems that not all packages are present for amd64.
Eugene

Hey Eugene,

Yep, 64 bit isn't supported yet for Debian. I think I'm gonna wrap up the builds by tonight or tomorrow, though.

Now I see that amd64 packages are ready. I'm sorry, but I need x86_64, too. I have purchased virtualmin license and can provide details if needed.

Hey Eugene,

amd64 is what Debian calls x86_64. The two are identical. It's just a misnomer on the part of the Debian folks. I'm running it on an Intel Core 2 Duo as we speak--it is not specific to AMD processors. (And, as far as I know, nobody uses ia64 boxes for hosting. They're too darned expensive.)

Note that it isn't officially supported yet, as I'm still testing and working on the actual install process--I don't know if it will actually work, as is. It'll be ready by this evening. I will announce support on the front page in the News section and in the News forum as soon as it is ready for mass consumption.

Thanks for your patience!
