You have at least four options. The first is to just install it as a normal x86 (using basically the same settings you probably use now, since I see you are on AthlonXP, only with SMP for the dual-core, and perhaps -march=k8 in your CFLAGS).
<snip> That's probably a bad idea. Setting k8 enables the PTA_64BIT option in gcc, which I'm guessing won't work too well with a pure-32bit kernel + userland. You're probably best off using the same profile as you are now. If your kernel supports the hardware, you could even do an inplace upgrade, and not have to reinstall at all. The one thing you'll miss out on with using the athlon-mp or athlon-xp -march settings is sse2, and athlon-fx specific tuning. HTH, Mike -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
