I've got my disk partitioned so that /home, /etc, /usr, /tmp, and /boot are on separate partitions. I'd like to install the amd64 port so I can finally make use of the full performance of my processor. But, I'd really like to transfer over all of my system settings to make the transition as seamless as possible. So I'd basically like to install amd64 into a new /usr partition and reuse all the others. Is this possible?
I'm relatively certain that no native packages would out arch-specific binaries anywhere in /home or /etc, so it seems that it should be pretty safe. I just want to make sure that I don't hose my i386 setup before I'm fully switched over. -- Alex Malinovich Support Free Software, delete your Windows partition TODAY! Encrypted mail preferred.
