Hi
I'm trying to install gentoo on Amd64, with the help of your "Linux/Amd64 Handbook" and it was going well until I came to the CFLAGS.
The handbook says that you should not set the march flag to 'athlon-xp', like it is done in the handbook, but I wonder what you should set the march flag to, since all I seem to get is an error message saying:
"The cpu you chose does not support the 64-chipset"
Please help me
// Vein
PS I have looked in the make.conf.example file, but I can't find any amd64 specific settings DS |

If you use the normal 2004.1 AMD64 Live CD, just don't set the -march flag. The included GCC 3.3.3 does not recognize Athlon64-specific options.
When you upgrade to GCC 3.4 later, you can set "-march=athlon64" if you have an Athlon 64.

A little off-topic, but is it possible to do the whole bootstrap and everything with gcc 3.4, right from the start? If so, how is it done? I can't find this clearly explained anywhere in the docs.

Yep, did it myself not all that long ago. Just use the stage files from here http://dev.gentoo.org/~lv/stages/ instead of the default AMD64 ones. Should work just like GCC 3.3 accept that you can use AMD64 CFLAGS. |
