Hello all!
I have ArchLinux i686 version, but I'm trying to compile an x86_64
kernel... And you've guessed... Not supported by the ArchLinux stock
gcc / binutils...
I've done the "raining" dance, by trying to compile my own gcc /
binutils, but it didn't "rain" (I mean it didn't work)... Any
pointers?
Thanks,
Ciprian.
P.S.: Is there any good reason for which there isn't even a
separate package of gcc that is able to do this? (I've read the bug
from one year ago, but no good reason was specified...)
P.P.S.: I'm missing Debian...
Arch users generally prefer a clean 32bit/64bit chroot to a "dirty"
system and have therefore developed tools to make chroot creation really
convenient. You should try it too - get the devtools and try "mkarchroot".
