It didn't work after all. I got a kernel running, but debootstrap doesn't want to cooperate. It quits with an error that it cannot find a script. It takes a random string from the pbuilder configuration and tries lo look for a script at that place instead of /usr/lib/pbuilder/scripts. Weird. I think I'm going to take the easy way out and install a minimal dapper 64 in a small partition and use that to build amd64 binaries. -- Sander Marechal http://www.gnome-hearts.org/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
