Subject: [uml-devel] UML and AMD-64
Date: Tue, 13 Jan 2004 22:40:44 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1AgMua-00075F-00@hermes.virtue> (raw)

I am wondering whether an AMD-64 box can host user-mode Linux. I know that an
AMD-64 system is supposed to be able to run 32-bit applications, but does that
extend as far as running a 32-bit UML virtual machine ?

Is there any possibility of running a 64-bit UML virtual machine on an AMD-64 ?

The UML website has no mention of an AMD-64 port of UML, but I have heard a
claim that it is possible to host a 64-bit UML on an AMD-64.

If anyone can shed light on this I would appreciate it.

Tim
