Migration of /data from 32bit to 8.2 64bit

Hi All,

I want to migration an existing database from a 32bit server to a 64bit
server. I will use exactly the same postgresql version (8.2.6).
Did I need to dump the data to do this or a single copy of /data will
work ?
Is any interger lenght impact on /data ?

Thanks,

You need to dump/reload.
