32 bit Ubuntu on 12GB Opteron?
We want to run a 32 bit Ubuntu kernel on a 12GB dual processor Opteron server (Sun V20Z). The box is going to serve remote desktops (Sunray) and there are some driver issues that dictate a 32 bit kernel.
Is this possible and still make use of the 12GB (with 4GB limits per address space)?
We tried booting the standard desktop Gutsy 32 bit distribution disk, and the boot fails falling into an initramfs prompt. Do we need a different distribution disk?
---
Aside from the 32 bit issue, is a desktop or server distribution appropriate? It needs to serve full featured remote desktop , but will mainly be a client for other services.
