I just recently moved from a pentium 3 system to an amd64 system and |
| 2 |
initially installed an x86 system (in order to make the move quickly). I |
| 3 |
am now ready to install aamd64 gentoo. I notice the handbook talks |
| 4 |
about a 32-bit chroot for the purpose of running 32-bit apps. |
| 5 |
|
| 6 |
Will my existing x86 system (its on a separate partition) serve for this |
| 7 |
purpose or do I need to set up a separate "chroot" system? |
| 8 |
|
| 9 |
Will I still be able to boot inot it from time to time (not sure why I |
| 10 |
would want to but it may be necessary)? In other words, using it as a |
| 11 |
"chroot" system won't disable some of the init files, etc. and make it |
| 12 |
unusable as a separate bootable system? |
