1 Much like http://bugs.gentoo.org/26150 the ia64 boot cd is not recognised and the bios falls through to boot the hard disk. Knoppix boots fine, but if i were to try to install from 32 bit knoppix it will fail as soon as I chroot as i would then be attempting to run 64 bit binaries from the stage3 tarball using the 32 bit knoppix kernel. Do i understand that correctly? And if so, what are my options for installing 64 bit gentoo?
