Yes, it does matter. This is a binary port, and the party that built
the binaries (Google) compiled them against a fairly

I'm not sure exactly what you're trying to do here -- but from what I
saw, the suggestions you are referring to only mentioned different
ways of mounting the iso image from the dvd. Whether you mount the
dvd, or just use

You've given some of your reasons for using amd64 -- but are your
reasons for using 32-bit binaries on amd64 strong enough to make all
of this worthwhile? Why not just use 64-bit binaries for all but the
32-bit-only ports? Sure, some 32-bit applications will actually run
faster (the opposite is a

It's too much trouble to append a 32 to every subdirectory of
/usr/local/ -- I'd still recommend something like

Yes and no. These files are supposed to be removed by running:
make delete-old
make delete-old-libs

You don't need to change directories if you change some of the
commands slightly, so the above line and the last line are
unnecessary.

This is supposed to be automated, but of course things can sometimes
go wrong, either through hardware problems, user-error, or an error in
Ports.

If you are using the old USB stack, use usbdevs(8). If you are using
the new USB stack from less than 5 months ago, then use usbconfig(8):
usbdevs -v
or
