retired DL580-G2 system question

Does anyone know if the standard HP DL580-G2 was shipped with supporting 64bit OS (for instance the Novell SUSE) I want to install SUSE v10 and want to know if 64 bit is supported on the HP Proliant platform. (I have the Xeon MP processor)

You can check the compatibility of linux OS with poliant servers here:

The CPUs on DL580 G2 are not 64 bit (they are too old, Intel was refusing to make x86-64 CPUs those days) so you can install SUSE Linux 10, but 32 bit version.
