Hi,
no, the build system does not replace your system, but requires root permissions. Those could damage your system in case anything unexpected happens, so creating a virtual machine which you can just delete and reinstall is a good option.

new problem/question ..
now I get the following message: *** Packaged toolchain compilation version options time (sec) status Resetting our nice level to 10 [ DONE ] Checking if we're running as root user [ FAIL ]
ERROR: Not building as root Check /home/robert/ipfire/ipfire-2.x/log/_build.preparation.log for errors if applicable robert@chrissy:~/ipfire/ipfire-2.x$
why should I do that as root?
is the build process replacing my system?
this is not what I want actually ..
I think I restart everything in a virtual machine ..
