Using a normal Sarge install then installing this: kernel-image-2.6.9-9-amd64-k8 - Linux kernel image for version 2.6.9 on AMD64 systems has resulted in a very stable environment for myself. Mind you, not all applications are "64 bit" but most of them don't have to be. Aside from a few enhancments (much like back in the day between pentium and pentium-mmx cpu's) the 64 bit really only means (to me) more memory and more bandwidth support. -- Darryl [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://smartssa.com / http://darrylclarke.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
