Hi all gentoo people! I've been away from gentoo for a while, and I'm in the process of reinstalling it today. While downloading the stage 3 I noticed that only an i486 version is available. As far as I remember, gentoo was best known, back in the days, for being fast, as it was one of the first distro to support i686... am i wrong with this? if not, why only i486 today?
apart from the reasons behind the decision of shipping only an i486 stage 3, do you think it's worth the pain to recompile everything (like the old stage1) for a different arch? i have an intel i5 processor. regards Davide
