Yes, I believe that's what I had in mind. So apparently there's > more needed.

In the meantime, if that helps someone, on debian it's trivial to get 64bit for some packages. All I had to do was this: gargamel:/usr/src# dpkg --add-architecture amd64 gargamel:/usr/src# dpkg --print-foreign-architectures amd64 gargamel:/usr/src# apt-get install e2fsprogs:amd64 btrfs-tools:amd64 And that's it. Now I'm back in business with a 64bit kernel. Marc -- "A mouse is a device used to point at the xterm you want to type in" - A.S.R.
