I would suggest using the i386, unless you have specific requirements
for amd64, because it has a better support for certain ('non-free')
software.
From my i386's aptitude:
$ aptitude show linux-image-2.6-686-bigmem
[...]
Linux 2.6 image on PPro/Celeron/PII/PIII/P4
This package depends on the latest binary image for Linux kernel 2.6 on
Pentium Pro/Celeron/Pentium II/Pentium III/Pentium 4 with 4-64G RAM
machines.
So, unless you have more than 64G of ram you should be fine with i386.
Cheers,
Johannes

I think debian should work for your machine. is your CPU 64bit? generally it should be, download the AMD64 iso to record the installation cd, http://cdimage.debian.org/debian-cd/5.0.0/amd64/iso-cd/debian-500-amd64-CD-1.iso you do not need to record a dvd, for most of the installed packages will be updated after you install. -- With Regards..., Santhosh.R -- My platform is debian sid AMD64 gnome.

Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org Hello Santhosh, Which version of Red Hat did you install? 5.0, 5.1, 5.2, 5.3? Most of the red hat 5 versions don't have the latest drivers for the newest Laptops, PCs, etc. If you just bought that Sony Vaio or is a recent model, perhaps it would be easier to install Linux using Ubuntu, which has a more updated driver database and it's based on Debian.
