6 Both grub and lilo can be compiled now, as long as you have a multilib
7 enabled toolchain and profile. If you are using the 64-bit only
8 subprofiles and/or have a broken 32-bit toolchain (multilib gcc and the
9 like), you'll have to use grub-static or get a 32-bit lilo from elsewhere
10 (since there's no 32-bit binary lilo package in portage).
