I have 2G. Couldn't I do 32-bit userland and 32-bit kernel? The |
| 8 |
reason for a 32-bit kernel is because I need to compile the Nortel VPN |
| 9 |
client and it is binary only crap and has 32-bit only binary modules. |
| 10 |
Well, the code actually uses a module wrapper which I can compile |
| 11 |
64-bit but then it barfs trying to link with the 32-bit only modules |
| 12 |
provided. |

I have not found any other way to connect to my works VPN than with the |
| 15 |
Nortel VPN client and even that is tough to get to work. |

Out of curiosity, how would I do a 32-bit userland with 64-bit kernel? |
| 18 |
Would I just change CHOST to x86_64 when I compile the kernel? |
