As I've done it about a year ago, I don't recall some of these details. After a couple of months, I decided to switch back to i386. It was just to experiment amd64. I share the same executables among multiple systems (although there are only 2 or 3) to sync software versions. (It is not often but having diffrent versions of the same software causes some problems.) Since I have i386 machines, I cannot share amd64 binraries.
