On the subject of CPU flags, anyone tried optimizing gentoo for a
Toshiba Libretto (110CT)?

how do I determine which of the stage3 installation files:
        stage3-athlon-xp-2005.0.tar.bz2
        stage3-i686-2005.0.tar.bz2
        stage3-pentium3-2005.0.tar.bz2
        stage3-pentium4-2005.0.tar.bz2
        stage3-x86-2005.0.tar.bz2
is appropriate? 'uname -m' (as suggested in the docs) reports i586 so I
assume it is pentium, but where is the boundry between P3 and P4?

Also, what would be the best CPUFLAGS where /proc/cpuinfo (under SuSE 7.3)
reports the following CPU information:
        processor       : 0
        vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
        cpu family      : 5
        model           : 8
        model name      : Mobile Pentium MMX
        stepping        : 1
        cpu MHz         : 233.292
        fdiv_bug        : no
        hlt_bug         : no
        f00f_bug        : yes
        coma_bug        : no
        fpu             : yes
        fpu_exception   : yes
        cpuid level     : 1
        wp              : yes
        flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr mce cx8 mmx
        bogomips        : 465.30

Is there anything else I need to check to work out my optimum settings?

Thanks,
