That wasn't necessary, as I just wanna know answer in YES or NO.Kaustubh KatdareThread Moved.
Anyways, no problem. You're using Mac, can you tell me whether it uses PAE Kernel underneath or not ? -
aviiJust because someone is running Mac doesn't mean they will know all kernel stuff ๐
to answer your question, you can discover it by yourself easily. Why PAE is actually required ? Since most of the new Macs are 64 bits, no question of PAE. And older versions OS X supports PAE.
If I am not wrong, even Windows also supports PAE as its necessary in actual. -
Abhishek RawalHow would I discover it by myself, when I don't own a Mac ? ๐
"All New hardware support 64-bit, that doesn't implies that they're running on 64-bit distro". While most of new hardware have 2GB+ RAM & when checking up configuration (from #-Link-Snipped-#) I didn't found any mention of x64/i686 bit of OS X.
So, I was kinda curious to know whether they still use PAE Kernels (as rumored) or not ?
64-bit is the future & using 32-bit OS with 2+ GB RAM on hardware supporting i686 is a buzz-kill.
Anyways, thanks a ton for replying @#-Link-Snipped-# -
aviiThats the point, you don't need to own a machine to about OS.
From Wiki : 'Snow Leopard is the last release of Mac OS X to support the 32-bit Intel Core Solo and Intel Core Duo CPUs.'
From Wiki of next OS after Snow Leopard, Lion : 'Platform support : x86-64'
Yup. I should have been clear. When I said new Macs, I meant new distros of Mac OS X.Abhishek Rawal"All New hardware support 64-bit, that doesn't implies that they're running on 64-bit distro -
