Hallo,

I am unsure if it's possible to create a reliable 32-bit kernel with a
64-bit LFS. I have a running LFS svn with the latest gcc but I have
other machines where I'm reluctant to upgrade everything so I
contemplated simply compiling the kernel on the LFS svn system and the
copy it over to feel good (although on a server machine for DNS I don't
expect a real threat from Meltdown or Spectre ...).

Can I simply take my 32 bit .config, make and copy the resulting kernel
and modules? Or is there still a risk of 64-bit CPU instructions to slip
in which might break the older machine?

Tschau...Thomas
