FreeBSD 7.2 Images

[atwinix]

Hello everyone,

I am looking for the FreeBSD 7.2 intel 64-bit DVD installation iso!

Does anyone know where I can find it? I tried a couple of mirrors so far but was unable to find any. There's only cd images!

thanking you for your help,

cheers,

atwinix

It seems that there is no DVD for ia64 platform, if that's what you are asking.

Do you have an Itanium-based CPU? If not, amd64 (which has a DVD ISO) is for you.

No, I have an Intel Core 2 E7600 which is a 64-bit processor. Will the amd64 iso work on it? Is it compatible?

I thought that the intel 64-bit architecture was different from the amd 64-bit one?!

 

[DutchDaemon]

amd64 is for all Intel/AMD 64-bit CPUs, except the Itanium series.

Ah, I didn't know that. Thank you everyone for your prompt reply. I will download and try that out.

Cheers.
