chrooting problem with ubuntu

linuxmandrake · 01-04-2006, 10:34 AM

I have sarge64bit and ubuntu i386 on the seperate hard drives. I was wondering if they both used the same version of the kernel but for different architectures. So 2.6.12 amd64 for sarge and 2.6.12 i386 for ubuntu would I be able to use modules from ubuntu within a chroot running off sarge? Meaning would it complain about the modules from ubuntu being a different format because it's not 64bit
Beause if am not mistaken amd64 is compatible with i386 architecture

the modules need to be compiled for 64bit architecture and 32 bit architecture

so u can have some issues there

Could I boot the kernel (ubuntu) within the chroot? I guess not but I thought i would ask
