I'd like to take it into the bleeding edge envrionment, but I'll lay off |
| 17 |
upgrading to glibc 2.2.2. Ideally, what I want is to make build.tbz2 |
| 18 |
with my preferred host and cflag settings or install off the current |
| 19 |
iso, and rebuild the base system with my host and cflags settings and |
| 20 |
just reinstall those rebuilt packages ontop of the existing ones. |

Either way, I'll need some pointers. What's the best way to go about |
| 26 |
this in your opinion (install and build, or new build.tbz2)? And I'll |
| 27 |
need pointers on making a build.tbz2 if that's the case. |
