I think the forum thread Bill is talking about can be found here: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-282474-highlight-rebuild+toolchain.html "An emerge wrapper for more correctly building the toolchain". I used it myself when I re-installed and wanted to start with GCC 3.4 directly; it seemed to work well. Good idea to at least glance through the thread or the first couple of posts first, as well as a couple others, in order to keep it straight just what's going on: Stage 1/3 Installation Guide for 2005.0 and GCC 3.4.4 (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-345229.html ) as well as some of the threads linked to in the 'toolchain' thread. Hope this helps. Holly -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
