My google and forum fu are failing me with this. Let me know if you have run into this on an Intel box.
Thanks, -Anne In building a gentoo, I'm doing the following in my home directory (after sudo): mkdir gentoo cd gentoo tar -xvjpf stage1-x86-2008.0.tar.bz2 tar -xvjpf portage-latest.tar.bz2 usr cp /etc/resolv.conf and /etc/make.conf to etc chroot . /bin/bash emerge --sync Everything is good up until I run /usr/portage/scripts/bootstrap.sh. It looks like emerge is failing on portage here (this also happens when doing emerge portage): /usr/portage/scripts/bootstrap.sh * Resuming bootstrap at internal stage #2 ...
