I am currently working to get a test cluster online using Windows 2008
Datacenter x64 with SQL2005 Enterprise x64. Although the 2008 cluster
is up and reports that it is running fine and shared storage is
attached and online, SQL setup does not give me the option to create a
failover cluster (the checkbox is greyed out).

Does anyone know if 64-bit SQL2005 clusters are supported on Windiows
2008 DC 64bit?

I am using the RTM version of Windows2008 from my MSDN subscription,
btw.
