I actually was going to build an x86 version under my amd64 Gentoo. I was planing on having them on different partitions for testing. Right now I am running Gentoo amd64 though I see some issues with not being able to run some crap proprietary software that is binary only and needs to load binary only 32-bit modules into the kernel. So I was going to have two Gentoo's installed to boot into. One 64-bit and one 32-bit. If I found 32-bit to be just as nice as 64-bit, I was planning on just switching to that. I extracted an i686 stage3 tarball into /mnt/gentoo and I was going to build from there in chroot. Once the initial build is done I was going to stay in chroot and build X, fluxbox and a few other apps I need to be running. Jim -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
