Stefan; It sounds a lot like you have a 32-bit installation. If this is the case, you should probably consider reinstalling with a 64-bit installation instead. That is the easiest way. There is no easy way of converting an existing 32-bit installation to 64-bit, but if you want a 64-bit kernel and 32-bit userspace for compatibility, ensure you have a gcc that can generate x86_64 binaries, and perform all kernel "make" commands (including menuconfig) with, e.g.: make ARCH=x86_64 In the parameters. Although, if you want simplicity, you should really just use the prebuilt Debian kernel packages. There are 64-bit kernels available for the i386 port.
