-<title>Installation of GCC</title>
-
-<para>This package is known to behave badly when you have changed its
-default optimization flags (including the -march and -mcpu options).
-Therefore, if you have defined any environment variables that override
-default optimizations, such as CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS, we recommend un-setting
-or modifying them when building GCC.</para>
-
-<para>This is an older release of GCC which we are going to install for the
-purpose of compiling the Linux kernel in <xref linkend="chapter-bootable"/>.
-This version is recommended by the kernel developers when you need absolute
-stability. Later versions of GCC have not received as much testing for Linux
-kernel compilation. Using a later version is likely to work, however, we
-recommend adhering to the kernel developer's advice and using the version here
-to compile your kernel.</para>
-
-<note><para>We don't install the C++ compiler or libraries here. However, there
-may be reasons why you would want to install them. More information can be found
-at <ulink url="&blfs-root;view/stable/general/gcc2.html"/>.</para></note>
-
-<para>We'll install this older release of GCC into the non-standard prefix of
-<filename class="directory">/opt</filename> so as to avoid interfering with
-the system GCC already installed in <filename class="directory">/usr</filename>
