OK, so having booted the install CD again and looking at /usr/share/portage/config/make.conf.example it seems that no CFLAGS are set in the example file. Maybe this is the way that the install CD is built, but I suspect that they probably use the first line which is commented out, if not more: CFLAGS="-mtune=k8 -O2 -pipe" - Mark
