I would use EM64T (as that's for intel cpu's).
Also enable the multicore-scheduler option under smp (available with newer
kernels...).

I'm not sure about that...but it looks like a core 2 duo is better than a
pentium-d. But that's just a guess, as I'm not too familiar with those cpu's.

Hi,
I have a Pentium D 930 and I use amd64 ISO images. Compiled kernel
with EM64T and SMP options. It works great. Don't know for
multicore-scheduler options? I suppose when enabled will recognize 4
CPU's?
