About Slamd64

Slamd64 is an unofficial port of Slackware® Linux to the x86_64 architecture. It was started from slackware-current in 2004, and was created by cross-compiling from scratch, rather than using an existing 64-bit distribution as a base.

Slamd64 is a multi-lib distribution, which means that you can run 32-bit applications easily, without a chroot. You can directly install most packages targeted at x86 Slackware®. Slamd64 11.0 and below do not include support for compiling 32-bit applications, however support is included in 12.0 and above.

Slamd64 is a non-commercial distribution; the maintainer's (Fred Emmott) primary income from the project is donations, although paid consultation and support for the distribution is available (please email for details).
System Requirements

These are only a rough guideline; your mileage may vary.

    * x86_64-compatabile CPU (AMD64/EM64T, not IA64):
          o AMD Athlon 64
          o AMD Athlon 64 FX
          o AMD Athlon 64 X2
          o AMD Turion 64
          o AMD Turion 64 X2
          o AMD Opteron
          o Some AMD Semprons (only the SDA*SBX model numbers)
          o Intel Pentium 4F with D0 and later P4 steppings
          o Some Xeon processors (only the EM64T, not the IA64 variety)
          o Intel Core 2 Duo (NOT Core Duo)
      This is not an exhaustive list, and may contain errors.
    * 128MB RAM. More strongly recommended.
    * 100MB (minimal, text-only install) - 3GB (full install) HD space. More strongly recommended.
    * IDE/SCSI/SATA I/O
    * If graphics are required, any VGA card.
    * If 3d graphics are required, NVidia or Intel cards are recommended, although any card supported by Linux, X, and DRI on x86_64 should be supported.

Kao sto je vec receno, nema zvanicnog izdanja Slackware-a za x86-64 platformu. Medjutim, postoji nekoliko nezvanicnih portova, od kojih neki vise a neki manje lice na sam Slackware. Neko je vec spomenuo Slamd64. Ja ga nisam probao, tako da ne mogu
da komentarisem, ali iz opisa vidim da je multi-lib, sto moze da bude korisno.

Ja sam instalirao Sflack Linux, koji je BUKVALNO IDENTICAN kao Slackware, gotovo se moze reci da je "nezvanicno zvanican port".  Moja preporuka ti je da instaliras njega, ako
bas insistiras na 64-bitnom Linux-u. Mozes ga pokupiti sa lokacije:

http://www.sflack.com


------Hvala, al ne insistiram da bas instaliram 64 bitnu verziju. Onako sam samo cisto pitao, dali ima i dali je moguce, radi testing. Inace vec sam instalirao 32 bitnu verziju, jos juce, al je nisam jos probao. Samo install.


Nisam siguran da ga mozes naruciti iz Linuxo kluba, ali mozes da ih zamolis da ga skinu i ubace u ponudu, ako nemas brz internet da ga skines sam. Isplati se, u svakom slucaju.


--------Ma download-irat cu ovo verziju, imam 10 Mbps internet, tako da bar za to nemam problema 

Osim ovog, postoji i:

http://www.bluewhite64.com

ali ne znam nista o njemu, pa ne mogu da ti ga preporucim. U svakom slucaju, jeste derivat slack-a za x86-64, ali na sta lici, i kako radi, pojam nemam.

Postavlja se i pitanje, koliko je zaista neophodno preci na 64-bitnu distribuciju, i koliko se zaista time dobija. S obzirom da nisam primetio neko ubrzanje, ja se i dalje drzim 32-bitne varijante, bar za sada. Videcemo ubuduce, kako ce se stvari razvijati. Ako neko ima komentar u vezi ovoga, voleo bih da cujem.


--------Ja nemam poima, al tek sam poceo da testiram. Al ko sto mogu da vidim skoro svi se zale na 64 bitne OS bar sada za sada.


Pozdrav!
