Hello All: I've spent my entire FreeBSD life in /sys/i386 using Intel chips. We have a new server with the AMD processor listed below and I'm wondering if: 1) I should stay in /sys/i386 with different configuration variables; or 2) Compile out of /sys/amd64 Any insights would be greatly appreciated. CPU: AMD Opteron(tm) Processor 240 EE (1396.03-MHz 686-class CPU) Origin =3D "AuthenticAMD" Id =3D 0xf5a Stepping =3D 10 =20 Features=3D0x78bfbff<FPU,VME,DE,PSE,TSC,MSR,PAE,MCE,CX8,APIC,SEP,MTRR,PGE= , MCA,CM OV,PAT,PSE36,CLFLUSH,MMX,FXSR,SSE,SSE2> AMD Features=3D0xe0500800<SYSCALL,NX,MMX+,LM,3DNow+,3DNow> Regards, Mike
