Hello!

I think this is quite an easy question.

Am I able to build a 64bit system using the livecd and the 64bit system?

echo $MACHTYPE returns i486-pc-linux-gnu, config.guess (like described in the 
book)
returns i686-pc-linux-gnu.

AMD Athlon 64 3400+

Do I have to use the CLFS-book?
Am I able to build a 64bit system using the livecd?
Am I able to build a 32bit system using the livecd?
Is anybody out there with a functional build on this architecture?

1) To build a 64-bit system from the CD, you need to follow CLFS, the "boot" scenario. 2) To build a 32-bit system, you may use either of the LFS and CLFS books. Note that there are many differences between the books not related to architecture details or cross-compilation. Try both and report here. 3) If other LiveCD maintainers agree, the x86-6.2-2 or x86-6.2-3 32-bit LiveCD will include a cross-compiled 64-bit kernel as an option, so that the "chroot" scenario in 64-bit CLFS starts working.

Sorry, I cannot release a fully 64-bit LiveCD because I con't have a 64-bit processor.
