Linux 32 or 64 bits? [closed]

6

How do I know if the linux I'm using is 32-bit or 64-bit?

I need to know what the architecture of my kernel is and I'm new to linux, I'd like to know how to figure it out.

Try uname -m . The command will give you the following output:

x86_64 ==> 64-bit kernel
i686   ==> 32-bit kernel

With this you will know.

Type the command arch into the terminal. You will receive a result like this ia64 or x86_64 to 64 bits or i686 to 32 bits.
