# General Setup
|
|
|
|
1. Follow the Gentoo Handbook for installing Gentoo
|
|
|
|
[Gentoo Handbook](http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/)
|
|
|
|
Generally, you can just use the amd64 version of Gentoo, as most servers now are 64-bit compatible
|

2. Install LLVM/Clang (Optional)
|
|
|
|
Clang is a faster compiler than the default GCC. It produces binary as fast, or faster than GCC. To set up clang,
|
|
|
|
run `emerge llvm clang`
|
|
|
|
and add these to lines to the top of your `/etc/make.conf` file
|
|
|
|
CC=/usr/bin/clang
|
|
CXX=/usr/bin/clang++
|
|
|
|
If a package fails to compile with clang, you can comment out those lines, and recompile the package with GCC.
