[CentOS] x86_64.rpm v. i686.rpm
Just curious why there are two types of rpms for some packages. Just got my first 64 bit machine. Which should I be installing? Both? TIA Eddie ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

TIA Eddie Because a 64 bit machine can also run 32 bit programs. So the default seems to pull in several 32 bit rpms also... It doesn't really hurt to let both install, it just takes space. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
