Aman.... said...: Hi sir
Please excuse as my question is really kiddish but I guess its better to ask than live in doubt.I Downloaded Oracle10g_x86.I have bought Solaris 10 o/s.I have an intel box.I started the installation of o/s but it says that the kernel is 32bit.This version of 10g(r2) is of 64bit is it?So should I look for 64bit Solaris?32bit/64bit of processing is governed by the processor?Am I right sir?I could not find Solaris 64.May be I didnt look hard enough too.Please advice.
Thanx alot for your time.
best regards
