I can't recommend WBEL-64 @ AMD64 at all. However, I got SATA RAID 
working, compiled 
drivers provided with manufacturer and system even boots with Lilo from 
that. But still too many problems with other 
things. Gigabit LAN card drivers just won't compile, support suggested to 
build new kernel, but i even can't compile my custom kernel from rpm 
source. 

many software will not compile or will not work properly although their 
website's don't say anything about problems :(
from one moment, probably kernel upgrade, useradd was not able to create 
new users, passwd was not able to change passwords.

I think that's too much for "must-working" system, so I switched to 
WBEL-32bit.


I wonder, has RH AS 3 64-bit version same problems?
