I'm installing Gentoo on an Acer Aspire 110. It's one of the "netbook" laptops. /etc/make.conf says:CHOST="i486-pc-linux-gnu" Is that correct?If it's an Intel-compatible (x86) and Gentoo is 32-bit, then yes, that's correct.OK, does i686 indicate 64-bit?
No. 64-bit is "x86_64-pc-linux-gnu". I don't know why you have i486 instead of i686, but I do know that i486 is correct too. If it has any drawbacks compared to i686, no idea.
