Can APU4 / AMD G-T40E run 2.4.0 (64 bit)?
-
Still have an APU 4 in production and see that it is on i386 2.3.4 p1 with no option to upgrade to 2.4.0 due to i386. Is the hardware compatible? If so, can I do an in place upgrade or will I have to do a clean install? Or is it time to pull the trigger on a new box!
BIOS Vendor: coreboot
Version: SageBios_PCEngines_APU-45
CPU Type AMD G-T40E Processor -
I answered part of my own question - the hardware can run x64 as I have another APU running 64 bit right now. As for the upgrade, will I need to do a reinstall/restore?

You mean APU1?
If so, then I'm pretty sure that board has 64bit support. You'll just need to re-install pfSense from scratch on the 64bit version.
This the one?

Believe that's the one. Thanks. Will do full install soon.

The units we have are actually VKT-40Es. One needed to go from i386 to x64. Used the USB memstick image and the 'rescue config.xml' option. Reinstalled to x64 without issue. Also upgraded the other VKT-40E we have which was already running x64 without issue.
