Older 32 bit only processors [hardware] were made prior to the introduction of the requisite hardware virtualization extensions. Without these extensions this is not possible. When these extensions appeared in the processor instruction set it was also the same time processors became able to run 64 and 32 bit code simultaneously. When I mentioned "32 bit only" I meant processors from before this time frame; they will not run a 64 bit guest VM.
In my case, I have dual of these:
cpu family : 6 model : 15 model name : Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU 6600 @ 2.40GHz stepping : 6 cpu MHz : 1596.000
I have a feeling it is 64-bit. Time to check.
Just check if the 'flags' line lists 'lm', but an Intel Core2 is definitely 64bit capable. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (13.2°C) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
