Re: [gentoo-user] VFS: Cannot open root device "hda6" or unknown-block(3,6)
Funny. From kernel 2.6.18 on I receive this message when cold-booting my (linux only) notebook. On second try, it all works well. Disk geometry and partitioning has not been changed. I guess a bug in kernel.

Re: [gentoo-user] -mtune for P4M (dothan)
WRONG! dothan is not a P4M, it is a Pentium-M, like the previous, 1mb 2nd level cache version. So you should apply the pentium3 + sse options for gcc 3.3, or -march=pentium-m for gcc 3.4 and upper. The pentium4m is just a cut-down version of pentium4.

Re: [gentoo-user] -mtune for P4M (dothan)
i would suggest the move to gcc3.4. Apart from architecture support, you will get an ABI C++ compatibility with gcc4.
