discipledoc Posted January 21, 2003 Report Share Posted January 21, 2003 Here's the deal: I installed Mandrake 9.0 last night. I recompiled the kernel and chose the Athlon Processor as the CPU of choice. I went through: [*]make dep [*]make clean [*]make bzImage [*]make install [*]make modules [*]make modules_install It took about 30 minutes to compile and then I changed lilo and everything went without a hitch. Here's the question: I want to be able to use optimized Athlon rpms. How do I do this? How do I build rpms (from the source package) to utilize the speed of my CPU? Here's my Specs My Machine is: Asus A7V8X AthlonXP 2600+ (333) Visiontek Ti4600 Soundblaster Live! 768 MB PC 2700 DDR333 1x80GB and 1x100GB ATA100 Western Digital Hard drives Mandrake 9.0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discipledoc Posted January 21, 2003 Author Report Share Posted January 21, 2003 Thanks...I think it does. I've been used to doing rpm --rebuild whatever.src.rpm when I should be doing it rpmbuild --rebuild --target=athlon package.src.rpm Thanks for your prompt assist.
