I had only used 15 gigs or so..(as I look to burn off 500 gig's realizing I didn't even scratch the surface, I guess movies and mp3's are what do it if your curious in burning off disk space).
Anyways as for creating ext4 and x86_64 system, I started yesterday, and everything seems good. /lib64 and /usr/lib64 seem simple enough to have the packages go there. but hopefully It's not to tough to make it to the xserver etc.. As for the build should I have used x86_64-unkown-linux-gnu or x86_64-pc-linux-gnu Justin P.
