Build 64-bit kernel on 32-bit system

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




After reading some of the 32bit vs 64bit thread(s), I thought I'd build a 64bit kernel on my 32bit F8 box. Got the latest kernel source and stable patch from kernel.org and tried running make menuconfig. Much to my surprise, there isn't a 32 vs 64 bit toggle in the kernel config. Google confused me, but did tell me I require a 64bit toolchain. This seems bogus, since the kernel is self contained. I think it should be enough just to set the proper gcc options.

Could someone who has done this before provide some help please?

Thanks,

John
