PDC on the C240 (and similar C-models of that generation) only
support PDC calls in "narrow" (ie 32-bit) mode. Sounds like the decision
to install 32 vs 64-bit depends on the PDC capabilities bit.
Can anyone offhand confirm/deny?
BTW, though the C240 has a PA2.0 CPU (ergo 64-bit capable), I'm not sure
rbrad has been able to resolve all the issues when trying to run 64-bit
kernels on his C200. He did resolve many of them - including support
for 32-bit PDC calls from 64-bit kernels.
