It's not like you're likely to *notice* any difference. And the specific answers depend on the version of FreeBSD you are running. > - make.conf "man make.conf" and search for "CPUTYPE".

On -STABLE (at least; I think this is true on all versions, but I'm not sure), that is I686_CPU. In any case, it will already be in your configuration file (or GENERIC), and you just need to remove the others in your config file. -- Lowell Gilbert, embedded/networking software engineer, Boston area http://be-well.ilk.org/~lowell/
