from david russell:
q:I paid someone to download ia64,and i have a complete copy,but my =
server is a supermicro server and is a xeon based board,so can i just =
change kernel by swapping it out with one from an amd boot disk?
will the ia64 work ok on this board without damages:?
thanx,i suspect the chipsets are really same,any comment on that?
