Subject: [gentoo-dev] Clarification of packages cd's for 2005.1
Date: Fri, 16 Sep 2005 14:51:05 +1200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20050916144447.499E.NICK@rout.co.nz> (raw)
I am looking at building a box this weekend. I want to use 2005.1 and if possible the packages cd (for a quick result) .
I have an athlon 1133. I am re-building it after a root account
compromise (don't ask or I'll cry).
According to the release announcement the package cd's don't seem to
have an athlon version any more. http://www.gentoo.org/news/20050808-annoncement-release-2005.1.xml
(the choices seem to be alpha amd64 ppc (32 bit) ppc (64 bit) sparc64
x86).
However on http://tracker.netdomination.org/ there are package cd's for
a whole lot of other sub-arches - i686, athlon-xp, P3, P4 and more. Are these official gentoo - if not can anyone tell me about their origin and reliability?
Also is "athlon-xp" compatible with "athlon"? Or should I go for i686?
Actually using i686 could be a bonus as it would mean I could share
binaries between my desktop and my p3 laptop, which is compiled for 686.
