Hi,

I'm currently running 32bit linux on a 686. Is there a way to change this to the 64bit version (a la something like update manager).

I'm also running Alpha 8.10, but this is not a requirement.

Thanks
Jim

HI and no there is no command. You will have to do clean install to have the 64 bit version. You may also consider that 8.10 is only recommended for users only testing as you are almost going to have issues.
