I think yes. The first 2 dozen or so are definitely x86 specific and not applicable to x86_64. I'm going to bet the others are too. Notice this line: > # using defaults found in .config So, it's starting from your i686 config, and trying to use it to assign as many symbols as possible to the new x86_64 kernel. Some of the symbols just won't exist. When you 'make ARCH=x86_64 menuconfig', can you find the IA32 configuration options? -- Boyd Stephen Smith Jr. [EMAIL PROTECTED] ICQ: 514984 YM/AIM: DaTwinkDaddy -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
