[PTLsim-devel] PTLSim on AMD-64

Fri Apr 11 11:49:12 EDT 2008

Sorry, I'm not in the PTLSim development team :)
I was telling that from my personal experience, since we also had a lot of
problems running PTLSim on our Intel Xeon machines, and we're also planning
to switch to AMD64 in near future.

I hope that somebody from the PTLSim dev-team can give us all hints about
this?
