 Posted: Mon Dec 13, 2004 10:45 pm Post subject: bootstrap hang compiling glibc |
 |
|
i'm having a terrible time getting 2004.3 installed on my desktop. this current situation is pointing to what may be a hardware issue, but i thought i'd post and see if it rings any bells with anyone before persuing that route. this box previously had winxp on it, and worked fine.
at the appropriate step, i run | Code: | | /usr/portage/scripts/bootstrap.sh |
somewhere in the glibc compile( i think it's v2.3.4 ), it freezes the whole system. it happens consistently in glibc, but at different points during the process.
the system is an athlonxp on a nforce equipped mobo with a geforcefx something. sound and network are onboard. drive is maxtor 160gb, acer dvd, both ide. also a 2940u scsi card in there controlling a dvd and cd-r.
this happens if i don't alter my USE at all, though, of course, i'd prefer to.
| Code: |
CFLAGS="-O3 -march=athlon-xp -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
CHOST="i686-pc-linux-gnu"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"

Try doing -O2 and -fvisibility-inlines-hidden, -fomit-frame-pointer, -march=XXXXXXXX, -ffast-math and -pipe. Those often end up being faster for most users than -O3. See if that works.
PS:-fvisibility-inlines-hidden is a C++ flag, by the way.

robet, thanks for the suggestion. i tried that tonight to no avail, it still hangs. if you or anyone else has more ideas, i'd love to hear them. this is obviously a problem localized to my system, or i'd see more posts on it. i'm going to start the hardware swap. for the record, the configuration i tried was:
| Code: |
CFLAGS="-O2 -march=athlon-xp -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -ffast-math"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -fvisiblity-inlines-hidden"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"

close up this sucker... the first piece of hardware i pulled turned out to be the cause. damn, 512mb dimms are a sorry loss.  strange though, since memtest86 ran for a day without issue. well, thanks anyways... |
