Hi,
Although BitFolk only officially supports 32-bit VMs at present, a
couple of customers have installed 64-bit Linux distributions. They
have then found the rescue environment not particularly useful since
its 32-bit kernel can't execute any of their binaries.
I have now done an upgrade of the rescue environment's image to
Debian wheezy and used a 64-bit install. An x86_64 kernel can
execute i686 binaries as well, so this will work for everyone and is
in any case a prerequisite for supporting 64-bit installs.
For more information on the rescue environment:

(General support for 64-bit installs is still not here, but is not
far off, and is a topic for another day)
Cheers,
Andy
