I'm running antix 13 32bit at the moment but I would like to get access to more ram so I can run virtualbox. can I just install a 64bit kernel or do I need to do a full install of the antix 64bit iso?

THanks.

You need a full install of 64 bit iso.

You might want to install a pae kernel from Debian, liquorix, siduction, Mepis (if they exist)

I went ahead and did the 64bit install. Thanks. I saved my /home and only a few packages were broken (stuff added after the default install) from the previous install.
