Can you point me to some documentation which explains EFI64? I searched for it with google, but the only real information I got, was that for booting a EFI64 kernel, the bootloader needs to support it. What is an EFI64 kernel? Is EFI64 a CPU flag? greetings, jonas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
