64-bit on ASG220

StephenW
Hi Guys,

Used the CD image for the appliance to update a client's Astaro ASG220 (hardware revision 2), to 8.002 (or whatever the most recent stable version is).

Anyways, I was told by support that these units support 64-bit. I've installed ASG on my own equipment before and it gave me the option, however noticed that the install was fairly automated on the ASG220 using the cd.

After booting, did a uname -a and noticed that it was using a i686 kernel (it also said i686 on the LCD).

Does the rev. 2 unit really support 64-bit? BIOS POST said it was a Pentium 4. If so, why didn't it install the 64-bit kernel?

Thanks!

    Considering that there's no advantage to using 64 bit unless you are using 4GB of RAM (and ASG220s currently ship with 1GB), not sure why it's an issue.  I wouldn't worry about it.
