I just tried this, and I used it before configure, though as you say, it shouldn't make much of a difference since it's processed by the Makefile, not configure. I used: echo "CFLAGS += -march=i686" > configparms The point being that if it happened that -march=i686 is used incorrectly outside of CFLAGS we know glibc will bomb, not that I thought it very likely that it would. Everything went smoothly, so unless anyone has any objections, this is the method I'll be dropping in, except using i486, of course. I won't commit for the next hour or so, however, so that will give at least some time for other comments or objections. -- JH -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/lfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/faq/ Unsubscribe: See the above information page
