34 Thank you very much for your answer.
35
36 You are right. Compiling the kernel with CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION solved
37 the problem. I switched from hardened kernel to gentoo standard kernel
38 some time ago and just forget to compile it with that option.

40 IIRC I build a multilib system many years ago because of grub. But maybe
41 I don't need multilib anymore. How can I find out if I have x86 binaries
42 installed?
