Is it possible to go from a Sarge Pure64 installation to a 32-bit debian installation remotely?
(I have KVM over IP access if that helps in the process any.. but no CD-ROM on that server)
If its possible could someone please tell me the steps to do it or point me to a url that covers it?
Thanks!
See below for why I think I need to switch to 32 bit....
-------------
The reason I want to drop down to 32bit is because of the following critical MySQL bug/problem referenced below.
This server is going to be a mission critical production mysql database, so we don't want to take any chances.

We're now running in 32 bit mode on the amd64, and that seems to work fine. One of the servers is now running as a replication slave with live data and it's actually replicating which is more than I got when running a 64 bit OS.
I've done some head-to-head speed tests (2 identical servers, one with a 64 bit install and one with a regular 32 bit debian, both running mysql 4.1.10 with identical configs) and the 32 bit version is about 10% slower. "
