Hallo,
I have some servers running with 32-bit LFS (intentionally). Longterm I plan to switch to 64 bit, but not right now. I'm contemplating switching the kernel compile from a 32-bit machine to one of my 64-bit systems to win some time. The 32-bit P4 compile machine takes ~100 minutes for a new kernel while the 64-bit i5 only needs ~25 minutes to build a new kernel. Would a 32-bit kernel work if I compile it on a 64-bit machine with the 32-bit config taken from the current compile system? Do I need some additional parameters or switches to signal that it's kind of a cross-compile for another CPU?
