It's not your CPU type but the type of CPU you are building for. The key information from emerge --info is CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu" when it should be CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" However, it is not as simple as editing make.conf, changing the CHOST of an installation is not supported, the setting is usually derived from the stage3 you started with. Backup settings and home then reinstall may be the easiest way out of this. -- Neil Bothwick When cryptography is outlawed, bayl bhgynjf jvyy unir cevinpl.
