I am trying to figure out how to use distcc to compile 64 bit on my 32 bit machine.
My main computer is a E6300 running Ubuntu 7.10 64 bit. I have a Windows Opteron 180 that I run a 64 bit Ubuntu 7.10 in a VM. I have an Ubuntu 7.10 32 bit 4200+ used as a media PC.
I can get the 64 bit VM to work with distcc, but when I try to add the 32 bit machine it spits back errors.
Using distcc speeds up kernel compile time greatly with the Opteron added and the media PC has a some power to give too and I would like to get that in the mix.
What do I need to do to get the 32 bit machine to compile my 64 bit using distcc?
I have seen things about cross compilers, but what I have looked at looks quite complicated. Any easy way or a set by step way?
