Thank you really much. (My message was cut, and i understand why. Maybe 
I had not used a right subject too.)


Except for GCC, i exactly know how to do. What i need is the whole set 
of variables and options to build an (almost) minimalist, (really) 
portable and pure (evidently) generic x64 GCC 7.5.0 with good support 
for C and C++ (sparsely "old" and almost recent) with the "configure" 
script and make, to run my operating system with GCC from RAM, under 
multiple x64 computers.

I think i can understand anything, for example:
i will use my USB storages without filesystem with encryption. Because 
there is a heavy hardware/software layer with today's computers.

I don't encounter any problems to understand the other GNU softwares or 
the creation of my operating system.

I try to understand everything in GCC, but i don't like proprietary 
hardware or software so i don't want to interest myself in all the 
things from GCC... I really want something simple. I mean for me, it's 
really hard to interest myself in proprietaries things. And Phew! ;D 
There really is a lot of those things.

But any globals hints are welcome.

I loved GNU since forever. I am a passionate. I just try to save me some 
time like i explained, then of course to learn, and to get some some 
latest good help.

Thank you again, and if you can't help me, i understand the answer may 
take some times anyway ! No problem.

Have a nice working
