This is all described in the handbook. Now we have purchased some more machines, and these are amd64 architecture. Is it possible to setup my buildmachine to build both i386 and amd64 worlds/kernels and then configure make.conf on the appropriate clients so that they install the right one? Thanks for your time and help in answering this. On this one point, the handbook doesnt really seem clear. I'd be happy to provide a bit of doco for the handbook if it really is okay. Cheers Jared
