Hello, I'm trying to set up a fresh install of gentoo since no other system seems to work on this hardware, but when I try to install the xserver mesa 9.1.6 fails.

I'm not sure what information you need, or of an efficient way to move my log file from the incomplete system to here, but I get a bunch of {standard input} errors before it fails. In order they are;

{standard input}: Assembler messages:
{standard input}:7: Error: invalid instruction suffix for 'pop'
{standard input}:9: Error: @GOTNTPOFF reloc is not supported with 64-bit output format
{standard input}:9: Error: junk '@GOTNTPOFF' after expression
gmake[3]: *** [entry.lo] Error 1

Anyone recognize this? Anyone know a good why to copy my log files from an incomplete system?

Thanks.

boot the install cd, mount the gentoo partitions, enter the chroot, nominally:
Code:
mount /dev/sda3 /mnt/gentoo
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/boot
cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount --rbind /sys /mnt/gentoo/sys
mount --rbind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"


Code:
emerge wgetpaste

to use wgetpaste on a file: wgetpaste /path/to/file
to use wgetpaste on a command's output: command | wgetpaste

graceful exit:

Code:
exit
cd
umount -l /mnt/gentoo/dev{/shm,/pts,}
umount -l /mnt/gentoo{/boot,/proc,}
reboot

At first glance it looks like incorrect CFLAGS.
It would be good to post your make.conf in a way mentioned by Donahue (wgetpaste /etc/portage/make.conf).
Since you mentioned hardware issue, it may be helpful to know a bit more about your box.

My make.conf file has the following entries

CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
USE"bindlist mmx sse sse2
MAKEOPTS="-j2"

Then it lists my portage and mirror options.

I'm running on an old machine I threw together a few years ago. Has a Sempron 3300+ proc and a K8VM800 mobo.

It is not enough. What CPU do you exactly have?

Your error message seems caused by architecture mismatch. Which stage3 do you have installed - amd64 or x86?

Well, I'm not currently at home to check any of this, but let's assume for a moment that I do have the wrong stage3 installed. Can this be fixed or do I need to start from scratch?

If you do have the wrong stage 3 installed, fixing it whitout reinstalling would probably be a mess involving changing the chost and reemerging the right stage over with an installation media. THat is probably more trouble than just reinstalling almost from scratch if you backup your configuration files for use flags...

Hi, your make.conf should look something like this:

Code:
CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe"
