According to my understanding on the sentence, you should create the symlink as long as your CPU is(supports) x86_64. I created that symlink when building lfs x86 32bit on a core2 duo cpu intel T5870. All seems ok. Thus I recommend that you create the symlink. -- Regards, Hugh -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
