I'm simply trying to offload compiling from my ancient, underpowered netbook (14 hours to build seamonkey!!!) to my desktop. I'd like to be able to transparently run "emerge" from the netbook, have the desktop machine do the grunt work, and install the compiled binaries and associated /etc/* files on the netbook. This assumes both machines are connected on my home LAN. Since you mentioned arm architectures, it's ironic that the wiki crossdev instructions now point to the embedded cross-compiler site http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/base/embedded/handbook/ I've followed the instructions chapter 2 for installing crossdev and it appears to work. Note that my desktop machine is a 64-bit install... ======================================================================= [d531][root][~] i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc --version i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc (Gentoo 4.9.2 p1.2, pie-0.6.2) 4.9.2 Copyright (C) 2014 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
