The Athlon XP supports MMX.
And SSE, too. Only add 3dnow (after install the athlon) (Normaly the athlon xp should work with all the p3 binarys)
Set CFLAGS="-mcpu=i686 -O3 -pipe" install the drive on your P3.
emerge -eD system (base system and compiler need to be on a "save" level)
Change to Athlon. CFLAGS="-mcpu=athlon-xp -O3 -pipe" and add 3dnow to USE-Flags
or -march=athlon-xp ;)
emerge -eD world
Maybe qpkg should be used to find the installed packages. I'm not sure that emerge -eD finds all installed packages, (from postings I have read, etc.).
