Sorry about the top post.=C2=A0

If your not trying to learn about the build process and=E2=80=8E you don't =
have a custom build requirement, why not use a prebuilt image move on to va=
lidating the running OS instead of repeating what the build server does?

I would think there is more value in finding anomalies in your favorite app=
lications. From my understanding there have been big changes to the fundame=
ntals of the OS (i.e hard float, compiler upgrades, byte alignments etc).=

I remember building Gentoo on an AMD K6II and it basically taking all
weekend, so that is why I figured couple of days.
