I followed this guide: http://www.howtoforge.com/kernel_compilation_debian_etch but it builds an i386 kernel and I built the kernel on a amd64 Etch system. Why did it build an i386 and how to I force it to make an x86_64 kernel? --finite9
oh cack!! just realised that my amd64 system is actually running Etch i386. I was sure I downloaded the amd64 version of netinst CD!?
