The name "amd64" is obviously based on 64-bit wide words. The "x86" = architecture was supporting 8-bit systems. So I would assume that an x86 = application could possibly run on an amd64 system, not otherwise. >=20 > I tried it out and when I moved the build to another system, I got the > error that libtiff5.so was not found.

Make it a complete virtual system, something like those system images = you can download from VMware. That way you don't have to make any = assumptions of the target platforms, all is included, even the = batteries. -- Greetings Pete Life is the only flaw in an otherwise perfect nonexistence =96 Schopenhauer
