Angelos are you up for trying a build based on the 64+mac iso?
question: is the 64+mac build also ok for 64+generic PC hardware?

(seems that it wouldn't be, otherwise why else ubu 13.04 come in
32,64,64mac instead of just 32,64mac?)


q2: for the 32bit, shall we use the pae kernel for large-mem access?

Hi Hamish,

Q1: This is a very good question. It would be too much to support 2 new architectures. I have build environments right now for both 32 and 64 bit hosts but I do not have a Mac to test. Personally I feel that mac users should not receive be some kind of special treatment (only Ubuntu offers a dedicated build, other distros don't), so I would prefer to have 64bit build without the mac changes.

Q2: I think that it is a good idea not to change the default kernel. So far we were holding back the kernel updates to protect the build process...

Cheers,
Angelos
