I'm using the same kernel version (2.6.20.11) on 32bit machines only, and they are all single CPU (P-M, Celeron, XP Athlon, Sempron, C3) > For 32bit/64bit your patch works if program binaries (losetup + gpg > + etc.) are all 32bit.

(I seem to forget about EXTRAVERSION all the time) Btw, concerning scripting in bash I just read about a syntax change in bash 3.2 in the slackware-current ChangeLog: "[...] syntax changes which may have occurred. The fix for 99.9% of these old scripts is to not use the deprecated `command` syntax and instead use the $(command) syntax." I guess I'll have to dig through quite some scripts in the near future... -- left blank, right bald
