Personally, I'd be very interested to know how you did this 'from |
| 2 |
scratch'. |
| 3 |
|
| 4 |
I myself have done this from the post-bootstrap (but pre emerge system) |
| 5 |
stage on, but I cant bootstrap with 3.0.x, why? |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
Well, the image the ISO installs has many applications on it, not linked |
| 8 |
statically (eg. tar, etc) -- compiling gcc3.0.4 works fine, but as soon |
| 9 |
as it then compiles glibc 2.2.5 and installs it, nothing else works. |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
The utilities on the install image look for glibc 2.2.5 compiled with |
| 12 |
gcc 2.95.x. So until there is an install image that has statically |
| 13 |
linked binaries on it, I dont see how a bootstrap can be achieved using |
| 14 |
3.0.x compilers. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
I too, however, have installed a 3.0.x based system. I did the |
| 17 |
bootstrap on 2.95.3, then first thing after bootstrap, I merged gcc |
| 18 |
3.0.4, and then did my emerge system. As Geert said, a few problems |
| 19 |
along the way, but not many. I too made patches for all the problems I |
| 20 |
found, I submitted them to Geert. The patches I made are ALL backward |
| 21 |
compatable to 2.95.3 (I believe, I've not tested this). But then, I |
| 22 |
could also have compiled a different package set than he did. |
