[SOLVED] Conversion to Hardened?

[costis]

Hello,

is it possible to convert my system to hardened, having installed "normal" gentoo?

Thanks!


EDIT: It was replied in IRC from a very kind guy (that I can say his (nick)name if he sees the post and tell me)

The answer is "yes":
"""
it's not particularly difficult. select hardened profile; emerge -1 gcc (noting that USE="hardened" should now be in effect); emerge -e world (to rebuild everything with the hardened toolchain); emerge hardened-sources; build kernel and reboot
after rebuilding gcc, just check with gcc-config to make sure the right instance is selected
