Notice that i have been working on install on powerpc 64 bit boxes (js21 and p505) this week, and that the 32bit installer should be mostly sufficient. I suppose the best solution for this is to use the same 32 bit installer, and then install from the ppc64 archive, instead of rebuilding the installer in 32bit like you intent. Did you investigate this solution ? Friendly, Sven Luther -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
