I have a build box, a Celeron 900, in which I'm planning to change the make.conf CPUTYPE from i686 to i586 so that I can build for a little Pentium 200 that I have acting as a Heimdal KDC. Before embarking on this, I did some google'ing to see what sort of gotcha's I might run into. I found two gotcha's: * It read a thread og groups.google.com that seems to say that the make installworld will fail when you build for i586 on a box that built i686 previously (due to library problems) unless you also installworld on the build box itself and then /rebuild/ a second time. Is this documented anywhere? Is there a clean solution to building both i586 and i686 on a dedicated build box? * How are the installed ports on the build box affected? Thanks for you help, -T -- "When you are inspired by some great purpose, some extraordinary project, all your thoughts break their bounds.
