Reginald,

I am not sure if this helps much, but I have had my dual Opteron system since before June of 2003. The only thing around at the time was Mandrake X86-64 (or AMD64). I loaded their beta on and everything went fine. I since have installed their release client, which went very smooth and I have been running a major Postgres (7.4.1) database on it for about 3 months now (full production). This is just opinion, but Mandrake seems to be in the lead on the X86-64 front (in terms of free software), at least at the time I was looking.

It has been very stable, particularly for a hand built machine running a release client package. I beats the heck out of the Win2K/MS SQL 7 server that it replaced (SHEW!).

HTH.

John Jones

>If not that, then x86-64 Fedora Core release - anything other than Windows at this point.
