Thanks again, and it appears to be working with at least `system' at this moment. After cleaning up the x11 drivers, and emerge -C 7-8 things I really don't need anymore. Even with a blocker in there, the emerge is running along just like you said it would.... nice. Hopefully the world part may be as easy too. I was really reluctant to take too this mess but with yours, Andreys', Dirks', Marks' and Dans' input it appears I may get this done by tomorrow. All and all, much easier than my first thought of building up a fresh gentoo install somewhere else and using that to overwrite my current install.
