Hi.
I just bought a DualCore, and a friend of mine told me I should build a
64bits system. Is there any point in this ? I noticed while installing a
base Debian (to start building LFS ;-) that the chosen kernel was the
AMD64 flavor. Is this normal ? And what options should I enable in the
kernel

If built on a dual-core system, does LFS take advantage of the dual cores?
If you enable the support in the kernel yes it does.

And if enabled, try this:
when building any package which takes a while to build, time how long it
takes to compile with
a) make
and
b) make -j 10
the second one should give you a speedy experience...
I have found that compiling big programs like linux kernel or glibc
works

if you compile a smp kernel it will.
