I have a core 2 duo (dell 6400), which is currently running x86. I am thinking of setting up another partition and dual booting amd64. My question concerns sharing some directories between the two (naturally only one is active at a time). In particular can I share * distfiles (DISTDIR) * logs (PORT_LOGDIR) * tmp (PORTAGE_TMPDIR) Thanks, allan -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
You can probably share all of them, but just realize the distfiles for x86 won't be usable for amd64 and vice-versa (unless you're going to use an x86 distfile on the amd64 because there isn't an amd64 version available). But let me ask you this: are you really that strapped for space to have to share these directories? -- - Mark Shields
