Re: x86_64 iso's for Test 2

["Lewt @ Linux Warcry" <lewt warcry com>]

Unless you guys bundle core 1 with a 2.6 kernel I'm unable to use it 
since I use SATA and FC1 or even the x86_64 FC1 does not detect.. I have 
both Promise and Silicon Image controlers.. no beans..

I consider FC2 Test2 x86_64 to be the first real version to use with any 
AMD64 system since 2.6 supports the chipset for the most part including 
Promise SATA.
