Hi all,

If I stick a 2006.1 ia64 disc in my shiny new PE 2950, it doesn't even
get a boot prompt. but amd64 works just fine. Does anyone else think
this is strange?

No. IA64 is something completely different from x86_64 (amd64). IA64 is *not* x86 compatible, despite sharing a similar name (IA32 for x86). IA64 is the successor to HP's PA-RISC architecture.
