Maybe. You need the amd64 support, not hyperthreading. There are P4
cores that had hyperthreading but not amd64. The isalist command should
tell you whether or not you have that.

There's only one install disk - it installs the 64 bit kernel if your
system can support it, otherwise not. Note that most of the commands
on the system are still 32-bit binaries, even if you've got the 64-bit
system installed.
