Medion Titanium MD8386 recognized as 64 bit computer
Last modified: 2005-08-20 13:55:48 UTC
I booted with the Beta2 CD1 on my Medio Titanium MD8386 computer (it's a popular brand in Germany, sold by the supermarket chain Aldi) The processor is a P4 3.2Ghz with hypertreading (perhaps this is what confused the cd boot), definitely 32 bit When I booted I saw this message Cool computer, but... You are about to install 32 bit software on a 64 bit computer Logging with severity=minor, as the following parts of the setup correctly identified the processor as a 32 bit P4
Please provide YaST2 logs and hwinfo output, see: http://www.opensuse.org/index.php/Bug_Reporting_FAQ#YaST You can also check yourself if "lm" (long mode) is listed among the flags in /proc/cpuinfo.
