 |
|
i'm currently running fedora core 2 and currently trying to install gentoo from stage 1. My Bios tells me i have an anthlon-xp 1500+ (i have tried bootstraping with the -march=antlon-xp option and failed so i used anthlon only and worked but this time it fails also), Fedora didn t come with procinfo so i yum-ed it. The output of procinfo -a doesn t tell me my procesor so i don t know where to get one, this is the current output

I hope you made a typo; the flag should be "athlon-xp", not anthlon-xp.
If that doesn't work, then you can switch to a less optimised setting, such as "-mcpu=athlon" instead.
To use vi, you'll have to run "emerge vim"; it is not part of the LiveCD afaik. |

That would definitely mess things up.

Try cat /proc/cpuinfo
Look in /proc and cat out the files in there for interesting info on your system.
Fedora also has a tool called lspci I bleive to discover info on your pci devices,, just an FYI. |

And to clarify, it's probably not a good idea to do this during the install - I'd stick with nano until after the emerge system step, and when emerging it make sure you don't have any X use flags or anything so that it just compiles vim and the base dependencies. |

And I concur; best to leave other packages until the base system is installed, and running. |
