1 I expect to assemble a small I7 in a week or so. My initial thought is
2 to use a 64 bit OS:
3
4 1. Does anyone have an I7 running a hardened profile/kernel? If so, any
5 tips, please.
6
7 2. Will the current gcc 3.4.6-r2 still function well, or should I forgo
8 propolice/ssp and go to 4.3.2-r2 'til the new hardened profile updates
9 the compiler?
10
11 3. I'd ....... guess ........ that I'd need a recent kernel e.g.
12 2.6.27-r4 for grsecurity!?
13
14 4. IIUC, some folks are working on a hardened 4.3.2(?) profile; is that
15 ready for prime time/ or ready for beta?
16
17
18 TIA
