OK, this was going to be my next attempt.... |
| 9 |
Confusing, because I have a Pentium Pro 200MHz that is |
| 10 |
i686 (CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu") |
| 11 |
with this info from /proc/cpuinfo: |
| 12 |
flags : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 mtrr pge mca cmov |

Hmmm. Good point. |
| 18 |
The Pentium Pro mentioned above is stopped during the upgrade of |
| 19 |
glibc 2.4. It told me to add "nptl nptlonly" to the USE flags. |
| 20 |
I did and issued 'emerge --resume". Hopefully this one makes it to |
| 21 |
glibc-2.4 and gcc-4.1 ? |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
So what should I set as the CHOST for an amd-K6 arch machine? |
| 24 |
Any other K6 settings I should select during the 2006.1 minimal CD |
| 25 |
installation? |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Anything any different in the make.conf file? ( O2, pipe, etc etc?) |
| 28 |

A deeper question is should I plan on migrating my older machines |
| 31 |
Pentium pro and amd k6 to another linux/bsd distro or will Gentoo |
| 32 |
maintain a solution for these older arch's? Maybee Gentoo embedded |
| 33 |
is the way to go with older arch's? |
