[gentoo-user] gentoo on xeon with 64 bits extention

2006-01-12 Thread Catalin Neagoe 

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?

Thank you.

Even though it's called amd64, it's for all x86_64 machines. I
believe at one time it was actually called x86_64, but then because
amd was the only one with an x86 compatible CPU, it was renamed to
amd64.

So yes, use the amd64 profile even though it's an em64t machine.
