believe it or not I got my hands on an amd64 laptop (authentic AMD 3200+ something), rebuilt u-m-l and rootstrap for amd64 and tested: the rootfs image creation went totally smooth. I didn't have any problem. I had some problems with threaded apps (that of TLS/NTPL stuff but on amd64 there's no /lib/tls to move away...)

In other cases it was 'dpkg-deb' that hung, also these symptoms resemble a /dev/shm-too-small[1] I had here on i386 but waiting some time (a few minutes) I could see the thing go on. [1]: as said previously you should note /dev/shm short in available space or your computer should already be swapping... I'm quite inclined to upload the packages with the modified Architecture field, what do you think? -- mattia :wq! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
