Ok, interesting. Sounds like that means that the -m tells us that you're
running 32 code (i686) and the -p (processor) tells you your CPU model.
Others have look that up for you; sounds like 64-bit capable.
I would also have imagined that /proc/cpuinfo ought to supply enough
information; maybe the "flags" field? I do not know enough, and I also don't
know if the flags field does not show 64-bit relevant flags when running in
32-bit mode. Anyone?
I would guess that your LiveCD may run 32 binaries in order to be able to boot
and run on as many systems as possible.
