    [SOLVED] 64 bit Ubuntu?

    I am downloading the 64-bit image of Ubuntu 9.10 right now, but I notice the filename has "amd64" in it. Will it only work on 64-bit AMD processors? I want to install it onto an enterprise-class server with a 64-bit Intel Xeon processor.

    The amd64.iso file is the 64-bit version of Ubuntu for amd and intel processors.
