If Wes' steps on Ubuntu 11 were on a 64 bit machine then hopefully using apt/aptitude to install the required packages before running kerl will sort things out, but I suspect kerl doesn't use otp_build and I'm not sure what the differences are between that and doing a straight build of the download (if any).</div>
