[gentoo-user] Gentoo on Xeon

[Gessy]

Hi,


I'd like know how to install gentoo on Xeon  with 64bits supports.
What stage can i use? Can I use stage3?

My processor is:
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 15
model           : 4
model name      :                   Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 3.00GHz
stepping        : 3
cpu MHz         : 2992.626
cache size      : 2048 KB
physical id     : 3
siblings        : 2
core id         : 0
cpu cores       : 1
fpu             : yes
fpu_exception   : yes
cpuid level     : 5
wp              : yes
flags           : fpu vme de pse tsc msr pae mce cx8 apic sep mtrr pge
mca cmov pat pse36 clflush dts acpi mmx fxsr sse sse2 ss ht tm syscall
nx lm constant_tsc pni monitor ds_cpl cid cx16 xtpr
bogomips        : 5984.23
clflush size    : 64
cache_alignment : 128
address sizes   : 36 bits physical, 48 bits virtual
power management:

I tried install from stage1 i686 with the follow flags:
CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
USE="-ipv6 multilib"
MAKEOPTS="-j5"

But when the bootstrap.sh arrived gcc-config compilation, i get the
follow error:
/var/tmp/portage/gcc-config-1.3.13-r2/temp/ccC8LeQb.s:1065: Error:
suffix or operands invalid for `push'
/var/tmp/portage/gcc-config-1.3.13-r2/temp/ccC8LeQb.s:1066: Error:

/var/tmp/portage/gcc-config-1.3.13-r2/temp/ccC8LeQb.s:1091: Error:

I need a help?

Thanks a lot.

I'm pretty sure that stage 3 is all that is supported now.  If you
really want to make sure you are optimized, do a minimal install, to
where you can boot and be stable, then do a emerge -e system then a
emerge -e world.  That should get you the same thing as a stage 1 from
what I have read.  Then install whatever else you need. 

You were cheated out of almost 8MHz too.  :-(

Hope that helps.

Hi again!!!

When I use a stage3-pentium4  for instalation and i tried compile the
kernel - gentoo-sources-2.6.16-r7.
My make.conf is:

CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
CFLAGS="-march=nocona -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
MAKEOPTS="-j5"
USE="-ipv6 multilib"

In the kernel configuration:
( ) AMD-Opteron/Athlon64
(X) Intel EM64T
( ) Generic-x86-64


I get the follow error:
 CHK     include/linux/version.h
  SPLIT   include/linux/autoconf.h -> include/config/*
  CC      arch/x86_64/kernel/asm-offsets.s
cc1: error: code model `kernel' not supported in the 32 bit mode
cc1: sorry, unimplemented: 64-bit mode not compiled in
make[1]: *** [arch/x86_64/kernel/asm-offsets.s] Error 1
make: *** [prepare0] Error 2

Whereas, I have a lot of doubts. Well,  what architeture i should use.
( I guess it is x86) . I'm very confusing with x86 or x86_64. What I
should use in CFLAGS. For AMD64, everything seems explaned but how to
install gentoo on intel's machines with EM64 support doesn't. Someone
can help me?
