There are "athlons" and then there are "athlons". Check the gcc page |
| 11 |
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-6.4.0/gcc/x86-Options.html#x86-Options |
| 12 |
for an idea of what's what. You need at least the "k8" version. The |
| 13 |
ultimate way to find out is to download the amd64 minimal install ISO |
| 14 |
https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:AMD64/Full/Installation#Obtain_the_media |
| 15 |
and try to boot off it. |
