OK,
It's been a while, so I'm following the handbook to install a gentoo
server that will eventually become a firewall using a 4GB Compact
Flash to IDE drive on this mobo(processor):
# cat /proc/cpuinfo
processor : 0
vendor_id : GenuineIntel
cpu family : 6
model : 8
model name : Pentium III (Coppermine)
stepping : 6
cpu MHz : 1002.398
cache size : 256 KB
fdiv_bug : no
hlt_bug : no
f00f_bug : no
coma_bug : no
fpu : yes
fpu_exception : yes
cpuid level : 2
wp : yes
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 sep mtrr pge mca cmov pat
pse36 mmx fxsr sse up
bogomips : 2007.10
So looking, via links Chapter 5, I have these choices:
install-x86-minimal-20090901
stage3-i486-20090901.tar.bz2
stage3-i686-20090901.tar.bz2
which of these should I download?
Here is my proposed make.conf file. Please suggest any enhancements,
I should make to this file:
CHOST="i486-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-Os -march=i586 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
PORTAGE_NICENESS="1"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"
USE="-* -nls hardened ncurses ssl crypt berkdb tcpd pam perl pcre \
python readline zlib bzip2 nptl nptlonly syslog"
PS I lost that url to the nifty file where the cpu/arch is matched with
CHOST and flag settings for various architectures.... This make.conf file
was for a minimal K6 system and the Pentium3 should be a little bit different?
All suggestions are most welcome.....
James
