Thanks... Thats Ok I have plenty of native opterons I can build on I was
just more concerned if I needed extras like binutils etc (and hence have
to much around changing /usr/libs paths). This is great!

Onto it now... Hopefully I can build up a nice kernel for that laptop
and when the client comes back just drop it in and everything (fingers
crossed) will go.

Kind regards
