Hi! For those who want to play with it, there's a Debian GNU/kFreeBSD system for amd64 now:
http://io.debian.net/~rmh/amd64/ Its stage is very preliminar and only useful for developers. Instructions: - Install FreeBSD 6.0 for amd64, and setup network. - Extract /boot/kernel from kfreebsd-image-6.0-1-amd64-generic, and use it to replace the stock kernel from FreeBSD. - Get base.tgz and extract it somewhere. - Mount /dev (devfs) and /proc (linprocfs). - chroot and run /native-install. - Get /etc/passwd and /etc/group from a sane Debian system and copy them over (/etc/shadow is NOT needed). - Done. You should be able to install things via apt-get now. This is due to Petr Salinger who did all the actual work of porting Glibc and debugging it.
