Hi all,

i've purchased a server with an Intel Xeon E3-1230 processor. I'd like to know which is its 64 bit architecture: ia64 or EM64T. I have to know this in order to install the proper linux 64 distribution. Anyone knows a working, free, linux 64 distribution for this processor? Thanks in advance.

This processor is Extended Memory 64 Technology (EM64T).

The only Intel processors supporting Real 64 bits technology are the Intel® Itanium® Processors.
