I always build my production servers with CPUTYPE=i686 so they can be
transplanted to any machine with a PPro or better processor (or even
qemu if necessary).
Thanks, Craig. I'm glad to hear that I'm not alone in pursuing this
method.
Do you know of any particular disadvantages of continuing with this
less-than-optimised model - I guess I mean, is this something that is
likely to break or become uneconomical at some point?
For packages, it's a good idea to make a build jail... in case of static
linking goodness.
I had packages bite me when I was building them all on a system with a
CPUTYPE=p3 world.
