Thats why I said use woody. The allways incompatible glibc updates
realy suck.
If you have a 64bit kernel and sarge-i386 you can run "cdebootstrap -a
amd64 /chroot sarge http://debian-amd64.alioth.debian.org/"; to make a
working 32/64 bit system.
Once a newer biarch glibc compiles and works installing packages from
sarge will be possible again too.

PS: Does sarge df work under a recent (2.6?) 64bit kernel now?
