I haven't tried wine, but I do have an i386 jail on my main amd64 server (primarily to build apps for my netbook) and have managed to build all the apps I want (including Firefox, OpenOffice.org and jdk15). I have a full i386 world installed in the jail and have the following overrides in my environment: MACHINE=i386 UNAME_p=i386 UNAME_m=i386 I did run into problems initially because my i386 userland wasn't aligned with my amd64 kernel but rebuilding both fixed that (I'm running 8.0-RC1 and a bit). Note that some tools that poke around in kernel innards won't work - ps and lsof are the most obvious. ktrace works but the resultant ktrace.out files need to read with an amd64 kdump. >Inside teh jail uname -a still produces this: >FreeBSD i386.puffybsd.com 8.0-RC3 FreeBSD 8.0-RC3 #0: Wed Nov 18 >22:22:44 UTC 2009 root@:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/WORKSTATION amd64 You are missing the UNAME_x environment variables. >so trying to compile mesa-demos produces this It will compile and run with the above environment changes. -- Peter Jeremy
