Well this is rather embarassing. This aint a 64bit processor. I bought

Sorry.....

Odd, that. Just which specific CPU do you have? Mobility-something, perchance?

Not only the Core-2, but the earlier Core-D had Intel's '64-bit extensions' 
(mostly) cross-licensed from AMD.

My Core-D happily ran FreeBSD ADM64 (6.2 beta onward).

Is DFLY that different?
