I have by mistake been using an i686 architecture for a while and recently ran into quite some problems. They now seems to be ok after having switched to CHOST i586 and recompiling my gcc.
During the weekend I upgraded from a 2.6.16 kernel to 2.6.22-gentoo-r8 and get one strange thing:
Code:
# uname -a
Linux server1 2.6.22-gentoo-r8 #1 Sat Nov 3 18:54:31 CET 2007 i686 VIA Ezra CentaurHauls GNU/Linux

What I feel is a bit strange is that it says "i686", even though I have switched to i586.
Is this ok, or have I done something wrong?

Thanks, Mats

Your kernel build does not use your settings from make.conf. The CPU type is set in menuconfig, under "Processor type/features".
