question about AMD64 HOWTO

Hi all,
I've installed my current system by debootstrap'ing in a new
partition/lvm logical volume. You only need to run an x86_64 kernel (of
course with 32-bit emulation enabled):
# apt-get install kernel-image-2.6-amd64-k8
Reboot and boot the new kernel, then run
# debootstrap --arch x86_64 {sarge,sid} $mountpoint $mirror
You'll need to copy some files over (like
/etc/{fstab,hostname,hosts,...}, whichever you need.
Good luck,
David

Yes, the more I read, the more it seems you can install amd64 onto an i386 system. The next question is what becomes of the existing system? Specifically, I don't see why the /home directory should be effected. I have a ~/bin directory but it's just stuff I wrote and compiled myself and can do so easily on Amd64. The /usr directories should be toast so it's just a question of getting the same packages (to the extent they exist) on the new amd64 sources.list given in the Howto. It would be nice if someone with experience installing amd64 over a i386 installation could chime in here. I've got a bunch of binaries in /opt but I'm aware of the issues (they either run in amd64 or a through them in chroot). Advice most welcome.

ASRock K8Upgrade-760GX Onboard Sound
Hi, I have the ASRock K8Upgrade-760GX board which works fine, (although I don't use SATA). It did take me some time to get the sound working and that was because the Capture Monitor was enabled by default, muting the output. Uses module snd-intel8x0 and comes up as C-Media Electronics CMI9761 My problem now is that I have no hardware volume control. I am using gnome-alsamixer or alsamixer. The PCM mute toggle works but all the sliders have no effect. I can use software volume in XMMS but it has to be 10% to be reasonable.

Hello, This is a reminder on the IRC meeting taking place on next saturday, April 23rd - the scedule was now set for 0700 UTC. The meeting will take place in #debian-amd64 on irc.oftc.net. The agenda is as follows: - the sarge release of debian-amd64 - patched versions of packages in sarge * patch D-I docs and choose-mirror for amd64? - security updates - CD and DVD installation media * include i386 debs for a chroot on the CD/DVD set? - Which combinations of sarge/testing/sid vs GCC versions ... to continue running buildd's for. - Should debian-amd64 actively push multiarch forward (to merge i386 and amd64)? Should we have packages with matching names that provide amd64 script wrappers for running chrooted i386 binaries ? - future of debian-amd64-gcc-4.0 Last-minute additions will be posted here: http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/irc-meeting.txt Everyone interested is invited to join.

Fwd: Future of the amd64 gcc-3.4/gcc-4.0 archive
Ups, I forgot to send to the list IMHO the gcc 4.0 branch needs to be in the HOWTO with all the warnings and with a really big note This is not working yet, but al the hands are welcome, because I don't need to remember us that the open source is growing up with the contribution of people that like to live in the edge. Or I need it? Greetings On 4/19/05, Ed Cogburn [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Monday 18 April 2005 5:02pm, Andreas Jochens wrote: I fully agree with this. Moreover, I think that to avoid confusion, the documentation should be changed so that it does not mention the gcc4 branch at all. Just so you know Andreas, what you're doing with gcc-3.4(4.0) is important and necessary work to get Debian updated for the newer gcc, and folks like me do appreciate your work there, its just that we think its best if new users of Debian AMD64 start out with the official pure64 first, before finding out about gcc-3.4(4.0). Thank you for your effort to make Debian better. Cheers, Ed -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
