Afternoon all,
After some amount of wrangling, I have been given a new head node for our
cluster of 32-bit xeons. It's one of the new multicore EMT64 Intel systems, and
part of the reason I got to have it is that we have some users who need to run
large-memory processes. Hence, I will need to compile it for 64 bits. There are
some 32 bit applications I will need to run there as well to support our extant
cluster, which leads to my question.
Does anyone have any tips about configuring and building the amd64
environment with multilib/32 bit support? The FAQ makes it sound like it's
mostly taken care of within various ebuilds, which is fine when everything is in
portage, but there's enough commercial code we have been running that I want to
get this nailed down early.
Thanks,
Andy
