I installed the 32-bit verson and booted it. Mounted the DVD on other machine and copied the whole 64-bit distribution over the network to a hard disk an the AMD. Then modified the boot menu to do the installation from the hard disk. Rebooted and it began installing from the HD. It worked, but I've skipped all the trials and errors before it finally did. When I needed to repeat the whole thing on two other amd boxes I bought DVD drives for them instead instead... /Lennart fredagen den 26 november 2004 17.29 skrev Chiu, PCM (Peter):
I have just experienced that 9.2 installation with CD1 on an Opteron box will only bring up the 32-bit mode. Is there a reason for that, and a way round this other than using a dvd drive?
Thanks.
