Dear Alberto, The profiledbootstrap option is just an optimization for gcc itself; it enables recursive compilation of gcc to end up with an optimized gcc binary.
Not using this option should not affect gcc's functionality - Flexus will work normally.

I am installing GCC 4.1 on a Fedora 16 machine in a local directory. I am able to do it using: $ ./configure --prefix=/home/amartinez/gcc --disable-threads --enable-languages=c,c++ $make $make install However if I follow the guide, I should use make profiledbootstrap instead. In order to do that, I have to add to the configure command the option --enable-bootstrap and the make profiledbootstrap will work, but the make install won't. I got this error: make[1]: Entering directory `/home/amartinez/GCCBoot/gcc-4.1.0' /bin/sh: line 4: cd: /home/amartinez/GCCBoot/gcc-4.1.0/prev-*: No such file or directory make[1]: *** [stagefeedback-start] Error 1 Does anyone know what could be the problem here? It is totally compulsory that I use "make profiledbootstrap" or will SimFlex work fine with a regular make? Thanks a lot, Alberto
