Hi Eddie,

The Itanium Processor is different from what comes in a standard Intel Server. You need a version certified for Itanium.

The Red Hat Website does cover this issue.

I am using HP Itanium rx5670 server with Redhat AS 2.1 for Itanium server installed. I think you can buy it from Redhat or HP.
