You can run a 32bit application in a chroot or in a DomU under a 64bit environment. But the option of having a full 32bit environment is also useful. Admittedly it's becomming less useful as RAM >4G is becomming more common which allows more application address space if the kernel is 64bit. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
