Message definition (Installing linux)
<strong>Note: you can install a 32-bit kernel on a 64-bit CPU. </strong>The fundamental difference between 32 and 64 bit systems is the size of memory addresses. In theory, a 32 bit system can not work with more than 4 GB of RAM (2<sup>32</sup> bytes). In practice, it is possible to work around this by using the ''686-pae'' kernel, so long as the processor handles the PAE (Physical Address Extension). There is a performance price to pay for this, so if you are installing on a server with a huge amount of RAM, use the 64 bit kernel.
