Debian 5 x86_64

Hello,

I noticed Debian x86_64 is not Grade A, B or C supported. I am a current Virtualmin customer but am migrating my setup to Debian. Does it just not work with 64bit Intel?

Thanks!

Howdy,

Well, perhaps the OS Support page should be updated to make this more clear -- but what Debian calls "AMD64" is meant to support both AMD64 and Intel EM64T (the Intel 64bit) architectures. They show that in this table here:

http://www.debian.org/ports/amd64/

That is, if you go to Google and search for "Debian x86_64", the port named "amd64" is what will show up.

Long story short, Virtualmin supports it just fine :-)

Have a good one,

-Eric
