emerge -e @system needs to be able to determine dependencies. I think it doesn't get much more basic than that. What version of portage are you using? Portage itself gets emerged pretty late in the emerge -e @system process on my machine. You might try: 1) emerge portage 2) rm /usrportage/distfiles/* 3) eix-sync (or emerge --sync I guess) 4) emerge -fe @system 5) emerge -e @system Also, smartctl -a /dev/sda your drive and see if there are errors getting reported. - Mark c2stable ~ # emerge -pe @system These are the packages that would be merged, in order: Calculating dependencies... done!
