asciilifeform: esthlos: do you understand that v, deliberately and as a fundamental design choice, has no merging ?
asciilifeform: hmm yea this doesn't fit the style of the other pgs, i'ma make it 1 colour
asciilifeform: ( 'factor' pgs also, i suspect, could use one )
asciilifeform: this is the correct picture. i'ma add a legend on top of the tbl.
asciilifeform: ( it should read 'factor / # M / when found ' )
asciilifeform: mircea_popescu: the column headers do not show in yer browser ?
asciilifeform: esthlos: when folx do as you described, it is called 'regrind' and is very labour-intensive, and is never done without a substantial reason
asciilifeform: esthlos: yer missing, i suspect , whole point of v
asciilifeform: wtf, why would you put it on genesis, rather than diana_coman's proggy
asciilifeform: how can removal of crud be 'complication' ?!
asciilifeform: ( don't build boxes with swap! it is riotously stupid thing to do, full stop )
asciilifeform: esthlos: imho absolutely not; i haven't built a linix box with swapping to disk enabled, in decade+ ( 'secure alloc' simply means 'marked unswappable' )☟︎
asciilifeform: ( not ready for primetime yet, but it boots my kernel )
asciilifeform: phf: if it wasnt clear -- problem is solved, i have the machine going
asciilifeform: i'ma read comments/barfology laters; off to ffa room nao!
asciilifeform: i have this on my conveyor under 'make arm gnat' but not gotten to it yet.
asciilifeform: diana_coman: it doesn't have to screw with the machinewide gcc; can do as part of buildroot ( iirc buildroot even supports auto-building gnat the same way i built e.g. arm7 gcc with it; but requires a running gnat to be present on the machine where it is done )
asciilifeform: ^ ave1 has the closest thing to a turnkey process afaik. ( still requires finding a working gnat for ~some~ machine , somewhere, that already runs )☟︎
asciilifeform: diana_coman: afaik not! ( aside from the amply discussed sad phakt that building it requires a working gnat bin to be found somewhere else )
asciilifeform: spyked: though iirc on rare occasions trinque's thing rang the bell twice for same one, on account of rss being an ill-conceived hack at birth
asciilifeform: douchebag: historically i've found that setting up a gentoo box to 'workstation' standard takes 2-3 wks. (depending , though less than you might think, on the speed of the comp.) fortunately 99+% of the work has already been done for you on that box.
asciilifeform: kill it. and read mod6's experience in #pizarro
asciilifeform: how much 'everything' do you actually need.
asciilifeform: and this incl. ~all~ contents, incl compiler
asciilifeform: for instance, rebuilding world on the rockchip ( a quite modest comp ) takes about a day and a half
asciilifeform: depends on how much your 'everything' weighs, neh
