You're rebuilding EVERY program in the distribution from raw ASCII C-source, and it takes a whole two and a half hours to do so. Awww.... Jeez, guy. My first computer only 19 years ago was an Intel SDK-86 with 2K of RAM, and it worked at EIGHT Megahertz. Seriously, here are three suggestions: 1) prune the install tree and remove unnecessary programs 2) change the gcc flags to kill the console messages below fatal error status. 3) eliminate other running services (X, webserver, etc.) -- oooOOO O O O o * * * * * * o ___ _________ _________ ________ _________ _________ ___==_ V_=_=_DW ===--- Don Wilde [don@PartsNow.com] [http://www.PartsNow.com ] /oo0000oo-oo--oo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo--ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-oo--oo
