Furthermore, 64-bit kernels are somewhat broken on ip22 right now. 
Something is wrong with memory allocation, and it really screws a lot of 
things up.  Off the top of my head, you won't be able to turn on swap, 
mount a ricerfs partition, or dd large blocks from /dev/zero.  You would 
be much better of sticking with 32-bit at this time.
