Dual Processor Server

Hi All,

I have a number question:

1. Would a 32 bit linux application run on a dual 64bit xeon processor?
2. In a dual processor system if one of the processors fail would linux continue running?
3. Is there a wiki where i can read up on dual processor technology on linux?

Responses would be appreciated!

Rgds

32-bit aplications should run, but, as far as I konw, it would be better not to mix up a 64 bit installations and some 32 bit programs.
