EPIA M-600, Gentoo-2005.0 & Illegal Instruction

Installed 2005.0 on a machine with a pIII on it
The hdd is setup as a web server
Moved the hdd to an amd box & no issues

Note : my make.conf is the default. I have NOT touched
the c/cpp flags in any way
i'm using i686-portage/base

Moved the hdd to the machine it was supposed to be in with the
epia m-600 board & it boots & dies with an illegal instruction.

Also whats interesting is i can boot from the 2005.0 cd & it shows
i686 when i do a uname -a or cat /proc/cpuinfo

So the question how do i get it working on the new system without
having to reinstall/re-emerge everything.

If anyone has a workaround then please let know.

thanks,
pete

The C3 on this board is i586 only so i fear the only clean&save way to get it runnning would be to recompile everything.

despite booting from the 2005 minimal cd & setting my mcpu to i586
& doing a bootstrap from stage1 (which died btw)
i cant find any sane way to get gentoo working on this board

whats really annoying is i can get bsd to work fine, gentoo just wont work
so if anyone can help me...i really could use some sound advice here
