Esxi will happily host amd64 installs and i386 provider the underlying hardware supports it. The older esx 3.5 works as well on 32bit hardware but I am no longer using it. Also I use virtualbox 4 hosted on a Mac and a 9-stable amd64 box with little issue . --- Mark saad | [email protected] _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
