for all x86_64 cpus, amd and intel alike. This is the exact same thing as
us shipping i386 and x86_64 packages, just slightly different naming (AMD
originated the platform, Debian named their 64-bit packages accordingly).
I'm wondering if that's the confusion here. They use the old naming convention
(which admittedly is still in use in some parts of a certain company that
supports Fedora[1]) of "amd64" to describe their 64-bit kernel ...
P.
[1] I've tried getting us to move to "x86" and "x86 32 bit".
I've _tried_. /me
weeps.
