Yes.

Fedora Core works with all 32 Bit Intel Processors.

It will fail to install if the proc is too slow.

Re: Does Fedora Project works on Intel Xeon Processors

Fedora has current builds for AMD64 series, but I'm not 100% sure whether they have an Itanium build also.

RH's enterprise products most definatly do have Itanium installs available.

Re: Does Fedora Project works on Intel Xeon Processors

Itanium isn't a supported architecture for Fedora Core 2 (yet). However there are development packages available. Note that Fedora and RedHat distributions are closely related but not identical. RedHat Enterprise (version 3.0) supports Itanium.

Look in (your.fedora.mirror)/development/ia64 for a root Fedora Itanium distribution. I haven't seen any installation ISOs; you may have to build them yourself (see: anaconda) or use an alternate installation method.

The RedHat Enterprise 3.0 installation documentation is freely available at http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/enterprise/RHEL-3-Manual/x8664-multi-install-guide/
and may provide some insight in installing the Fedora development packages.
