Re: [LINUX_Newbies] TEST for 64-bit

 

Also, pretty much every modern x86 CPU is 64 bit. The only 32 bit ones I know of are ARM chips or the cheapest Atom chips.

Fastest way would be to just look up the processor model on the internet. If it's an Intel chip, search the Ark (http://ark.intel.com). Not sure what AMDs cpu db is.

Is there a Linux test that I can do to see if my computer is 64-bit?  I
got a new one in today, and the shop that built it for me says that it's
64-bit, but the 64-bit LiveDVD I burned won't boot.  The LiveDVD did
suggest that my kernel should be 64-bit (64-bit kernel was turned ON in
menuconfig), but the kernel failed to build with that option, possibly
because all the other files on the system were 32-bit.  I'm just
wondering is it, or isn't it?
