As of now, 5.1 does support the opteron in 64-bit mode, but the support is still preliminary... if it's not complete enough for you, you could always just run the machine in 32-bit mode. We have an amd64 mailing list now, you may wish to ask around there for more information. Mike "Silby" Silbersack
