Is option "Install everything" possible on x86_64 FC3?

Hi,

I intend to reinstall my machine from scratch with x86_64 FC3.
On my main developer machine I always chose the "install everything"
option.

I am now browsing the contents of the 4 installation CDs and
I noticed that there are some packages that may conflict, e.g.
ghostscript-7.07-33.i386.rpm and ghostscript-7.07-33.x86_64.rpm
where the same programs are in /usr/bin. Don't they conflict?
How is this situation solved? Is the i386 version installed first
and the x86_64 version overwrites the conflicting parts?
Or anaconda prefers x86_64 over the i386 version if they conflict?

Best regards,
Zoltán Böszörményi
