Hi,

I installed Fedora 11 (i686 PAE) on a Philco netbook with an Intel atom N270.
However, although everything is running just fine, I was not able to
use an x86_64 installer. The message said I needed a 64 bits processor.
Therefore, I used the 32 bits fedora DVD from a USB stick.

I thought the N270 were 64 bits:

What is the problem with these little toys?

Thanks.

Never mind. The N270 seems to be really 32 bit.

Anyway, everything is running just fine so far, even the Intel driver (knock on wood...)
