I rebooted to load the new kernel, and was going to finish 'emerge -u world' but emerge died with "Illegal instruction".
I rebooted back into my original kernel, and tried emerge and got the same thing, so I am assuming it is something wrong with gcc.
I compiled gcc on my desktop machine with (the env variables are the same as what's in the mail server's make.conf):
# export CHOST="i586-pc-linux-gnu" # export CFLAGS="-O3 -mcpu=pentium-mmx -funroll-loops -pipe" # emerge -B gcc
Then on the mail server, I had to create /usr/portage/packages, /usr/portage/packages/All, and /usr/portage/packages/sys-devel.
I copied the build file to packages/All then make a sym. link from packages/sys-devel to packages/All
then did 'emerge -K gcc' emerge completed w/o error gcc itself seems to work ok..
If I can't find a solution, how would I revert back to the old gcc w/o emerge!?!
does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks, Aaron
