Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

I just made a big ol' gooferino, my friends
So I'm in the process of installing Gentoo on an old Thinkpad of mine, as one does. I decided to run a quick test before wiping my drive just to see what kind of a night I was in for, so I quickly (read: slowly) grabbed the Linux source from Github and attempted to benchmark the compilation. Actually I manually paged through every file in the source tree and typed it out by hand but that's beside the point.
Three hours in I decided I wasn't gonna sit around for that. It was sure to be a long night if I didn't speed things up a bit, so I installed and started distcc on every computer I could get my hands on, hoping it would turn a multi-hour process into... still a multi-hour process in most likelihood, but hopefully less so. I ran through the Gentoo install, and got to the very exciting
emerge @world
About three hours later, I notice that although jobs are being dispatched to my other machines (occasionally), they eventually fail and are built by the laptop anyways. Oh no!
After about a half hour of googling and trying different things out, I realized that my slave machines were running a different55 major version of gcc than the host, which is of course why my jobs were failing. Damn. I had to halt the updates (it was compiling Linux at the time so it wouldn't be done for a few hours at least if my test was any indication) and install the proper version of gcc (which is testing in portage. Like, what the hell Gentoo, I thought you were supposed to be ~bleeding-edge~ /s).
Once that compiles I'll be on my merry way, and hopefully in not too long. I'm hongry and tired and my wife left me because I stopped paying attention to her.
Who can relate?

Might just go for a binary kernel when you're installing, once you're up and running you can always compile that stuff in the background later. Also hours seems like a really long time for kernel compilation. This dude at least can compile a kernel in 20 minutes on what he calls "old hardware." Never done vanilla Gentoo but I've installed Funtoo a few times, and by default it sets you up with a Debian-style binary kernel. If you ever just want to try a source-based distro and don't want to worry about installing it (which for Gentoo is about as easy to install as Arch, just with more waiting), you could also check out Bentoo which goes beyond the kernel to set you up with a pre-compiled userland.

Could, but you don't get internet clout unless you compile your own kernel, like a man. I'm not really waiting super intently on the install anyways, this is just a """""fun""""" weekend project.
Also hours seems like a really long time for kernel compilation. This dude at least can compile a kernel in 20 minutes on what he calls "old hardware."
Weird, we have comparable hardware (both Penryn c2ds, his is just clocked a lil faster than mine). The only major difference I can think of is he might have an SSD whereas I'm still running the stock 5400RPM HDD, but I can't imagine that's a huge bottleneck.
It seems like most other sources also mention times in the 10-30 minute range even for older hardware, but a few people say that it takes them hours. I wonder what the deal is with that.
------
The journey continues!
I got through (most of) my gentoo install without a hitch. For some reason 'emerge @world' wasn't compiling linux like it did during the initial run, so I decided I'd need to do that manually. However, I kept running into weird issues. Either it would error out halfway through the make or just fail to even start due to some missing files (turns out I was running 'make' instead of 'make all', whoops.)
After consulting the folks on the Gentoo IRC I found out that, as is mentioned in some distcc resources, compilers on different distros can produce unexpected results even if the major version is the same. Oh, well. Now I have a gentoo chroot set up on my desktop and main laptop with the thinkpad (host) only handling preprocessing. Probably could use pump mode, but I've read it can be buggy and I don't want to halt compilation now.
It's running on 2 hours and I've just finished compiling the drivers, and this is with three computers working in tandem. Still seems a little strange, but I'm not gonna worry about it. To be fair my kernel isn't incredibly optimized (mainly becasue I was afraid I'd break something if I disabled stuff all willy-nilly). Once the system is up and running I'll try trimming the kernel down even more. Or maybe I'll just wait until the next update.
----
Edit the third:
Just as I finished typing up that last edit the compilation finished. Total runtime: 2 hours 1 minute. Probably slightly more, I started the timer a little late. Nice! Can't wait to finally boot my install and proceed to do absolutely nothing with it!

Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
She was looking kind of dumb with her finger and her thumb
In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
Well the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go
You'll never shine if you don't glow
Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
You're bundled up now, wait till you get older
But the meteor men beg to differ
Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
The water's getting warm so you might as well swim
My world's on fire, how about yours?
That's the way I like it and I never get bored
Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid
All that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars break the mold
Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play
Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show, on get paid
And all that glitters is gold
Only shooting stars
Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas?
I need to get myself away from this place
I said yep what a concept
I could use a little fuel myself
And we could all use a little change
Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
Didn't make sense not to live for fun
Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
So much to do, so much to see
So what's wrong with taking the back streets?
You'll never know if you don't go (go!)
You'll never shine if you don't glow

I had to put in my 5 cents, but Anatoly closed the topic.
^ Merged with OT chat because threads with “Anatoly” in the title seem to bring out the worst in people.
