 |
|
Hello,
I am currently running a dual opteron Gentoo box and I was wondering how I would go about compiling an i386 kernel (not to boot, simply for benchmarking). I have already setup gcc with multilib so that it compiles with -m32, I ran make "ARCH=i386" menuconfig to prepare the config file.
Which flags should be specified during the actual "make" of the kernel? Should I do anything about the CROSS_COMPILE flag?
Thanks,
Phil

plegault,
The kernel does its own thing with CCFLAGS. Configure the kernel for the target processor of you choice with make xconfig.

| Yes, the processor type has been specified in "make menuconfig" but the actual make still produces errors. |
