Because of this, we need (at this time, might change in the future when glibc supports detecting VSX vs SVP64 etc) to rebuild the stage 3 system to not include any of those instructions, making it compliant with [sffs (slides 5 & 6)](https://ics2020.bsc.es/sites/default/files/uploaded/brian_thompto_ICS2020_SLIDES.pdf). -You can approach this in two ways: either build the full base Gentoo stage3 packages yourself using the [handbook](https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Handbook:PPC64), optionally automated with our [scripts](https://git.libre-soc.org/?p=dev-env-setup.git;a=tree), or use the [prebuilt rootfs] in a compressed tar archive. +To do this, you need to rebuild Gentoo from a known working stage3 archive, which we will guide you through. Do note that given the rolling release nature of Gentoo, it is almost impossible to get the same system with the specific package versions we have without using the same stage3 version we used.
