First do the obvious stuff: sudo mount --bind /opt /var/iso/build-etch/opt sudo mount --bind /home /var/iso/build-etch/home sudo chroot build-etch su markus to avoid a man page error: export LC_ALL=de_AT.UTF-8 export LANG=de_AT.UTF-8 Warning! Make sure to source cc for 32bit and cce for 64 bit. For 64bit ia32-libs need to be installed. This is for 64bit: source /opt/intel/cce/10.1.018/bin/iccvars.sh (dont source again, PATH and so on will be written double) now export compiler: export CC=icc export CXX=icpc
