I tried the 64bit CD and it would not boot.  This must be a hand-me- 
down box with the older Xeon chip.

However, this is an intel chip, is their 64bit arch different?  When I  
installed Ubuntu on my 64bit Athlons it looked like amd64 packages  
were being installed.  Is there another Ubuntu install CD I am not  
aware of for intel 64bit boxes?
