According to the OS support documentation for the automated install script, Rocky, Alma, and RHEL are Grade A supported only on x86. On AMD they count as Grade B.
Are there plans to provide Grade A support for these OSs on AMD as well? Thanks!
AMD x86_64 processors have always been supported.
Perhaps, OP means ARM?
No, I meant AMD. I thought AMD was x86, but on the OS support page it takes care to note that Ubuntu and Debian are supported on i386 and amd64. So I inferred that there was a difference between x86 on an Intel processor and an AMD processor that was significant to the automated installer.
Ubuntu and Debian call x86_64 amd64. RHEL/Alma/Rocky call it x86_64. Not our doing, it is what you’re operating system calls the architecture.
x86_64 was originally invented by AMD for their 64 bit x86 compatible processors, but Intel 64 bit processors used the same instruction set. There is no difference from our perspective, they are all 64-bit x86 compatible processors.
Thanks so much for letting me know!
