Hi guys,

teri tried to bootstrap her p133 machine and kept getting fails on the glibc
compile during ./bootstrap.sh.  As much of her log as is available is in the
attachment.  Also note that mkeadle experienced a fail on his p4 consistently,
but in a different spot of the compile...

Usually is when something have instructions that is not valid on current
platform.  Tipically the stage1 have mmx instructions, etc which the p133
cannot handle.

Guess we should check that our stage1 tarballs is really i486, no mmx
valid.

to comment #5:

stage1 is generated using -march=i386, -mcpu=i386.

if that contaims mmx instructions, gcc has a problem.

Comment 9 teri-aka TrAns13nT 2003-01-17 15:26:22 UTC

sorry about no comments, I got stranded with no interent, I'll fetch my p133 and the 1.4_rc2 on tuesday and see if it still breaks

Comment 10 teri-aka TrAns13nT 2003-02-26 07:18:04 UTC

isntalled a 1.4_rc2 on my p133, when with a i586 stage3, have pretty much recompilied everything for it since it's running ~x86 (i know, I'm evil) but everyhting seems to be workin grand, if needed I can install a stage1 in a chroot, just lemme know
