Hi Folks, Once upon a time I didn't need to ask this kind of question ...
I'm about to install Linux (probably Debian) on a laptop which has an Intel Core Duo T2390 CPU.
So I'm wondering whether it I should use i386 or ia64.
I *think* (but am not sure) that this chip has 64-bit capability (though that may need to be enabled somehow). Presumably i386 would work anyway, but it would be nice to enjoy the benefits of 64-bit architecture if available!
Since this is my first time facing this question, I'm totally naive about the installation implications, and would welcome informed advice and/or comments!
With thanks, Ted.
