I know you can use the 'setarch' utility to trick your current shell to think it's running on x86 instead of x86_64 and then it should build 32-bit sstate-cache (and reuse 32-bit sstate-cache as well) on a 64-bit machine. I suspect there will be a few other issues that are encountered (such as missing 32 bit libraries) but overall it's quite doable. Can anyone comment if there is a better way here? Taking things once step farther and running a setarch with a chroot and I know things work quite well but that's a lot more involved as you need a 32-bit chroot environment. -M -M _______________________________________________ yocto mailing list yocto@yoctoproject.org https://lists.yoctoproject.org/listinfo/yocto
