Compiling a i386 kernel on a x64 system.

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

 



An earlier message stated that this can be done, but it doesn't seem to work 
on my system, so perhaps I am missing something.

I use the kernel.org source code, and copy the same .config file I use on the 
i386 machine. If I run make menuconfig or just make, it prompts for 
processor, and only give x86 options..

The new phenom II 955 system can build a kernel in about 12 minutes 
versus the 2 hours of the other system, so being able to build with the new 
system would be a real advantage. 

The i386 has Fedora 10, and the x64 has Fedora 11.

Perhaps something else needs to be installed, or some option.

Thanks.
