Yes I'm running amd64. However, since I'm on slow dialup and the amd64
box is the only one with a CD burner and lots of drive space, it would
be a major headache to have something happen that caused stuff to not
work.
But what could happen if you tried it on a duplicate partition? So it
doesn't work. You go back to the working partition.
The box uses LVM so I can't give Lenny its own actual disk
partitions. Also, downloading a whole new installation is non-trivial
at 28.8 Kb/s (sometimes 14.4, sometimes 9600). I'm many miles from the
telephone exchange. It took a few days to install an ia32 chroot with
just base, mc, lynx, and iceweasel.
