Huh... Can you please make it 100% clear? |

If somebody has any 64-bit system, and at some point later he will need to |
| 11 |
run any 32-bit binary (like VMware, Skype, etc.), he will need to |
| 12 |
reinstall his system? |
| 13 |
|
| 14 |
No way to, say, compile 32-bit-compatible packages in chroot, and then |
| 15 |
just update current system with these binary packages using emerge -K? |
| 16 |
|
| 17 |
In general, is it possible to switch (upgrade/disgrade) between 32-bit, |
| 18 |
64-bit and 64-bit with 32-bit binaries support systems? I mean, by |
| 19 |
recompiling/installing something on current system and reboot, without |
| 20 |
need to boot special 32/64-bit environment like LiveCD, installing new |
| 21 |
system and then moving all configuration from old system to new? |
