Re: Change in do_chroot script from am64 howto

["Gudjon I. Gudjonsson" <gudjon@mc2.chalmers.se>]

Hi again
   If you are using matlab 7.0.x you can install it in an sarge, amd64 chroot 
but if you do have the 7.1 version it works perfectly on Debian amd64, sarge, 
etch and sid and you don't need any chroot.
