It's time public testing of the amd64 port begins.
Short instructions for manual testing (not relying on /usr/src/test/amd64):
1. You obtain a git branch containing the changes from my amd64+hacks branch and any other changes you deem appropriate.
2. You do a cross-buildworld and install the world into a separate directory:
cd /usr/src
make TARGET_ARCH=amd64 TARGET_PLATFORM=pc64 buildworld
make TARGET_ARCH=amd64 TARGET_PLATFORM=pc64 DESTDIR=/some/dir installworld
cd etc
make TARGET_ARCH=amd64 TARGET_PLATFORM=pc64 DESTDIR=/some/dir distribution
You do customizations to the installed system, e.g. filling in /etc/fstab with the data of the root fs.
You copy /boot/loader from your i386 system to the amd64 system.
3. You build a kernel and install it:
cd /usr/src
make TARGET_ARCH=amd64 TARGET_PLATFORM=pc64 KERNCONF=JG64 buildkernel
make TARGET_ARCH=amd64 TARGET_PLATFORM=pc64 KERNCONF=JG64 DESTDIR=/some/dir installkernel
4. You now boot your newly-acquired amd64 system. :-)
