It's OK. I was sailing a bit too close to the wind there I think.
I have recently installed Clear Linux on the Fx 8350 box I have. For a bit of fun I tried installing Gentoo Prefix on it. The bootstrap script crashed at the outset - it is unhappy with the environment variables for CCFLAGS and CCXFLAGS that are set in the bash script file. They live in a special profile file that Clear Linux uses. The problem here is that the compiler settings are important for Clear Linux to deliver the fast optimisations it is famous for. I tried using the unset command but it didn't help. I am a bit worried that I might mess up Clear Linux if I am not careful in trying to persuade Gentoo Prefix to install on it. Perhaps I should be content with having it installed on the Debian OS. Regards MF > >
