I am about to migrate my x86 to amd64.
Because I have a x86 laptop, may I copy the laptop partition to my desktop and chroot to it from adm64? If yes how?
Thanks |

Just remember to put:
before the chroot command.
Of course you will have to emerge linux32 first. |

actually, it's setarch, and it's in the system package list, so you don't have to emerge it seperately |
