[mythtv-users] Compilation Issues

I have a question about compiling Myth. I am working on upgrading my
backend and separate frontend to the latest trunk from SVN. The backend
went fine, but I have a problem on the frontend. The frontend is built
on a Via MII10000 board. Since it is still in use and is very slow to
compile, I am just throwing together a system using another desktop. I
have put together a working, bootable system on the desktop and used it
to compile and install Mythtv. Everything works great. So, I copied
the system onto a compact flash card and used a cf-to-ide adapter in the
frontend. The system boots, but I get a segmentation fault when I try
to run mythfrontend. I am just wondering if this is due to Myth being
compiled on an Athlon processor instead of on the Via itself. I used
"--arch=i386" in configuring mythtv to try and get around this problem,
but I get the segmentation fault. Is there another arch I need to use,
or should I just leave that out, or do I have to compile it on the
processor on which it will be used? Any advice is appreciated.
Thanks,
Joel
