>From man emerge: ENVIRONMENT OPTIONS ROOT = [path] Use ROOT to specify the target root filesystem to be used for merging the requested packages or ebuilds and their runtime dependencies. This variable can be set via the --root option or in make.conf(5) (the command line overrides other settings). Defaults to /. --root=DIR Set the ROOT environment variable. That variable is either set in make.conf or on the emerge command line as a option. Of course, this depends on what it is you are trying to accomplish. More info on that may help others to know what settings need to be adjusted. Hope that helps. Dale :-) :-)
