Hello!
I use FreeBSD/amd64 6.0 as the only OS on my desktop
PC. Having carefully thought over pros and cons, I decided
to downgrade to i386 for the time being.
My plan is to
1. cvsup
2. Deinstall all ports
3. Somehow build/install new world and kernel
4. Reinstall all ports
I know that the i386--amd64 path is still not that smooth
and going backwards is not gonna make it smoother, but
can you please give some helpful tips?
Thanks,
Andrew P.

Andrew,
I am doing the same thing, basically, a couple of things not yet
working on amd64 is getting annoying. You could do what I am doing. I
backed up my data for transfer. But instead of wiping out the amd64 disk
I bought another disk and installed the i386 version on the second disk.
This way I can easily have access to amd64 FreeBSD when I choose.
Sean
p.s. I have wondered if I could upgrade upgrade an i386 install on my
opteron to amd64.
Has anyone tried that, is it possible?
