Which version should i choose..i386 or amd64?

First know about 32 bit and 64 bit.

You can have some general idea from Ubuntu Community Documentation > 32bit_and_64bit

For more technically oriented look for wikipedia articles 32-bit and 64-bit

But I do not know whether my cpu supports 64 bit :-(

Are you on windows?

Download and install cpuz
Run it
In CPU tab, if you see EM64T (if its Intel) or AMD64 (if its AMD) then your processor is 64-bit capable.


Are you on Linux?

Type in terminal (in Ubuntu Applications>accessories>Terminal)
cat /proc/cpuinfo

In the output, in flags look for 'lm'
'lm' stands for 'Long Bit', it means your your cpu supports 64 bit...Hurrah!

My opinion
If your CPU supports 64 bit (whether Intel/AMD/Via) go for Ubunt Reloaded 10.04 amd64 even if you use 32 bit windows.

Thanks!

You will be surprised to know that i don't have a computer!..well..it was stolen last year..:-(
Though i have learnt my lesson and have started to take adequate precautions, i have to live with the stigma of 'careless'.

So, when i was planning to make Ubuntu reloaded, it was unlikely that anyone would lend me his laptop. A big THANKS to my junior Dr. Prashant who showed trust in me and left his laptop at my mercy for two days. Thanks to Dr. Aatish, Dr. Nagpal and Dr. Tripathi who are helping to upload Ubuntu Reloaded.
A big THANKS to the giants on whose shoulders we stand...and finally a big applause for YOU guys who inspire me to beat all odds to bring this wonderful release for you.

Thanks for giving a visit and reading my posts.

If you happen to visit New Delhi,contact me and do drop by for a cup of coffee...i would love to meet you.
