I have a 32-bit Atom box too. The corresponding lines are: |
| 11 |
model name : Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N270 @ 1.60GHz |
| 12 |
address sizes : 32 bits physical, 32 bits virtual |
| 13 |

It has two cores though, and it does have mmx according to /proc/cpuinfo. |

I export its packages directory via NFS to a 32-bit chroot on my workstation |
| 20 |
which I've set up to compile packages for it. I just have to make sure that |
| 21 |
/etc/portage/* is the same and it just works. Well, there are a few |
| 22 |
differences because the Atom box is the LAN server, but it's nearly the |
| 23 |
same. |
