Hi Thomas,

This latest x86 branch build and boot without problem with my usual
x86_64 config.

If you remember our conversation one month ago, I was unable to build
your tree.

I've upgraded my Ubuntu distribution from 7.04 to 7.10 beta this week,
maybe this fixed it.

But I still had to do some manual fixes to get the packaging steps
working:

mkdir arch/x86_64/boot/
ln -s ../../../arch/x86/boot/bzImage arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage


Best regards,

- Eric
