Hi, I am trying to figure out the best settings (performance wise) for a AMD Ryzen 5 3600 with a MSI Tomahawk max motherboard. I don't want to overclock -- tweaking the bios is for finding the optimal setting in oposite to waste performance via sub-optimal settings like not activateing XMP profil

Hi Victor,     emerge crashes when it tries to add metadata during the merge stage in an emerge installed python module using 3.7 when the PKGDIR is on a moosefs share.  When PKGDIR is local its fine. I am rebuilding some systems now with 3.6 as the PYTHON_SINGLE_TARGET but I was hoping for some

Why do you think emerge might be the issue? It's quite rare for portage itself to be causing problems with packages. That said, if you have good reason to believe so you can adjust the PYTHON_TARGETS for sys-apps/portage in /etc/portage/package.use like so: sys-apps/portage PYTHON_TARGETS: +p

How can I force emerge to use python 3.6 when 3.7 is installed? - eselect list shows 3.6 is #1 and 3.7 as fallback so that doesn't work. I am trying to narrow down a failure which appears to be a combination of building packages that are stored on a moosefs network share and python 3.7 BillK

I'm finally building my new system, but I'm pretty certain I'll need some advice to get it to boot. As you might guess from the subject the "problem" is dm-integrity. I'm using openSUSE as my host system, which I used to set up the disk(s). So currently I have sdb --> sdb3 --> dm-integity
