 Hi folks,

 Anyone knows if there is gentoo for  xeon with 64 bits extention?
 'cause I've seen that there are only amd_64,ppc64 and sparc64 gentoo
 versions.
 Am I wrong?

I have at work a dual xeon EMT64 running Gentoo.

Choose amd64 flavour.

I already know your next question will be about cflags ;-) ...

Thank you and Mike for your answers, cause the amd64 arch name was not 
leading me to thinking that is generic for x86_64 at all :)
well, the next Q might be actually something related to a driver for the 
raid controller on that machine.
It's a SATA SCSI controller (it is an IBM if I remeber) and there is a 
CD with the driver (for RHEL or Suse Enterpr. of course :)), and I will 
wonder myself how I will detect and use the raid arrays. well I hope 
I'll figure it out.
