Hi,
I've just installed Fedora 9 64 bit on an Intel PC i686. Is there an
enviirnment macro I can check on a makefile to find it is a 64 bit OS?
You can ask the system itself: uname -a
Uh, more like "uname -m". On a 32-bit machine:
[root@testbox ~]# uname -m
i686
On a 64-bit machine:
[root@prophead ~]# uname -m
x86_64
