running etch on AMD Duron 1200 chip

2016-01-06 Thread Michael Fothergill
Dear Folks. I am running Debian etch on an old AMD Duron 1200 box. It's so long since I used it I can't remember if it must be running the 32 bit version of Debian ie 64 bit version cannot run on it? uname -m says i686 which makes me think it is 64 bit. Is that correct? ​Comments appreciated
