Confusing, because I have a Pentium Pro 200MHz that is i686 (CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu") with this info from /proc/cpuinfo: flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 mtrr pge mca cmov > Does this mean he can't use glibc-2.4? Or what should he do with CHOST > (stage3-x86 sets it to i386...)? Hmmm. Good point. The Pentium Pro mentioned above is stopped during the upgrade of glibc 2.4. It told me to add "nptl nptlonly" to the USE flags. I did and issued 'emerge --resume". Hopefully this one makes it to glibc-2.4 and gcc-4.1 ? So what should I set as the CHOST for an amd-K6 arch machine? Any other K6 settings I should select during the 2006.1 minimal CD installation? Anything any different in the make.conf file? ( O2, pipe, etc etc?) A deeper question is should I plan on migrating my older machines Pentium pro and amd k6 to another linux/bsd distro or will Gentoo maintain a solution for these older arch's? Maybee Gentoo embedded is the way to go with older arch's? James -- [email protected] mailing list
