I had another go at patching the kernel yesterday but was not successful. Today I will install 32bit version to get everything going again. I have checked the caelinux distribution and the new version (2010) only comes in 64bit. I was hoping to have only one environment for everything, but guess i have either to wait a little longer and use dualboot or spend serious time on understanding how to compile the kernel and linux in general :-).
