Hi Matt
Your method is the easiest way for me to install the 64-bit R. I followed the directions on your web site and then did the following:
R --arch=x86_64
source("http://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R")
biocLite(type = "source",lib = "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.8/Resources/RLib64")
I got many errors and warnings which I copied to the attached file.
Any suggestions on how to fix the errors will be appreciated.
Thank you for your help
Joseph

Hi Joseph,
For what it is worth (which might not be that much!), I have written
down step by step instructions on my website for getting 64 bit R
working under Leopard - it should be much different with Tiger:
http://www.matthewckeller.com/html/64_bit_r_on_mac.html. I think it'll
work but there may be some mistakes in there. I'd be happy to take
suggestions...
