Recently, accidently inserted an Itanium64 installer in an amd64 PC and there wasn't any feedback message at all ... just the DVD did not start. I wonder if it's just grub being architecture specific ? Nailing down the CPU is a tricky thing. Even if you install and use the 'cpuid' tool, you st

in the 32bit version, cat /proc/cpuinfo and paste it here. 2006 should be new enough and generally the boot disk will tell you quite clearly that 64bit isnt supported, the full error would be helpful if you can paste it. the crash could be acpi related. try noacpi as a kernel option Dean On 22/
