Well, AMD64 support as a tier-1 platform only came
in with 5.x, so
you're S.O.L. if you have to use a 4.x release
version.
Will a i386 disk boot on opteron system? Can I
use same disk image for intel and amd MBs? Any
big problems?
You can generally run AMD64 machines in IA32 mode
--
but what would be
the point? All you get then is a machine that
costs
more than an
equivalent IA32 box and that probably performs
worse.
Actually due to the onboard memory controller it performs significantly
better
than like-priced chips from intel.
