Purpose

The purpose of this page is to demonstrate that kfreebsd-amd64 meets the [http://release.debian.org/lenny_arch_policy.html architecture recertification criteria for lenny].

If some of these requirements are irrelevant or implausible for the port, please add a waiver request indicating why and how this isn't a problem for the arch in bold.

Availability

The architecture is publicly available without NDAs via:

1. [http://www.amd.com/us-en/Processors/ProductInformation/0,,30_118_9331,00.html AMD]

2. [http://www.intel.com/technology/architecture-silicon/intel64/index.htm Intel]
