| For gcc Via Samuel 2 is i586. LiveCD won't work, nor i686 stage tarball. |

Same problem here (Same CPU)... A bit of a miss making the x86 stages i686 instead of x86 
I understand stage 1 is nolonger supported. But does stage1 still work? If so, what is it compiled for? |

| Just take any live cd that runs on your architecture (e.g. a 2006.0 installcd, knoppix, ...) and a 2006.0 stage3-i586. When you reach the step "Choosing the Right Profile" (Gentoo Handbook), choose a 2006.1 profile. |

OK, I will try that too. Im trying this right now. (Wrote the instructions first, now waiting for bootstrap to complete)
Here is how I hope to get Gentoo running on my VIA machine. (Still compiling)
Follow the original instrustions untill you are told to get a stage3 tarball, get stage1 instead. After this you should follow the instructions again (Adjusting the commands to fit the stage1 files name of cause)
When you reach the end of "5.e. Configuring the Compile Options" you need to do things differently.
Now its time to chroot.
| Code: |
# cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/resolv.conf
# mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
# mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
# chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
# env-update
# source /etc/profile
|
Time to bootstrap the system.
| Code: |
# cd /usr/portage/scripts
# ./bootstrap.sh
|
After the bootstrapping is done (Some time later...) you should be able to rebuild the system.
You should now be able to jump back in the original instructions at "6.b. Configuring Portage"
Good luck!
BTW. This is how my make.conf looked before I picked a mirror with mirror select.
--- make.conf ---
| Code: |
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=c3 -m3dnow -Os -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"
ALSA_CARDS="via82xx"
VIDEO_CARDS="cle266"

No need to try it if your method succeeds. It would just have spared you the bootstrapping (i.e. some compile time). |

Hmmm..... It seems I had forgotten how much time it took to bootstrap one of these steam powered computers. I would suggest that anyone else who try this get an old live cd and try that aproch instead.  |
