7 Clearly you are completely clueless. Do *NOT* do this. It will break your
8 system. It is not possible to run any 64 bit code with a 32 bit kernel. There
9 is a guide [1] you must follow very carefully if you ever need to change your
10 CHOST between two x86 CHOSTs. Even that has potential to break your system if
11 you are not careful. If you need to switch from an x86 CHOST to an x86_64 CHOST
12 there is no sane method short of a reinstall.
