Regarding CPU virtualization support for 64 bit guest.

You can check if your host can support this using:

egrep "svm|vmx" /proc/cpuinfo

If it returns something, then your CPU can use x86_64 images,
otherwise, you are stuck with 32 bits.

My laptop's CPU is Intel Core2 Duo CPUT6500 @ 2.10GHz, and does not
have it, but my server is AMD Athlon II X4 635 and does support it.
