It is an Intel Xeon 2.4GHz processor, but I was told yesterday here on the list that if LM does not appear in the AMD Features line of dmesg, then it does not support amd64. I looked at another server we have here now running amd64 FreeBSD and I see the AMD Features line with LM, but on this server, no AMD Features line whatsoever. I am getting 'BTX halted' when trying to install FreeBSD-amd64 on this server. The other server we have running it has Xeon 3.0GHz procs, I thought that was kinda weird that the two servers were really close in spec, but one would not run amd64 :/ This would be my preferred option if I can get it to install. -- Robert
