1 Hi there!

3 I want to harden the gentoo running on my little server, but I'm a little
4 worried about possible problems. Like, services not coming up when
5 rebooting after an emerge -e world. Do you see any possibility for that?

7 I followed the guide at <http://rockfloat.com/howto/gentoo-hardened.html>
8 (activate hardened profile, enable some kernel options and build new
9 hardened kernel, emerge binutils gcc virtual/libc), and
10 added -fforce-addr to my CFLAGS. I then switched back to gcc 3.4 from gcc
11 4 with gcc-config, and now I should do the emerge -e world. I guess this
12 is quite safe?
