Description Andrew Shewmaker 2013-04-22 19:09:35 UTC

When using genkernel to create an initramfs, busybox fails to build with:

ld: i386:x64-32 architecture of input file `applets/applets.o' is incompatible with i386:x64-32 output

I hit this when building the kernel in a chroot installing a new x32 system.  It got to compiling busybox and crapped out on the ld error.  I worked around it by passing CFLAGS="-m64" to just compile busybox, however, when I was up and ran genkernel again, it compiled file.  I didn't trace it down.
