If checking the file system doesn't help, that may be
your next option. I might add, some had to do that with new USB sticks
straight out of the box.
I also saw mentions of inodes but generally, that didn't turn out to be
the problem. I think you can check those with df -i.
Hope that helps or someone else comes along with a better idea.

that someone else started that is not related to this.

You need to go back further for the error. I see Error 2 but don't see
Error 1. Sometimes you have to go back a good ways, depends on CPU

en emerge can include the packages
in world and figure out how to update both sets, system and world.
Unless you have a really good reason to do so, you shouldn't try to
update system by itself. It limits emerge and can lead to issues. The
easiest way is to update world and let emerge update everything at
once. There may be exceptions to that at times but they are not that
often.
Hope that helps.

emerge add the change, it will lead to two problems. One, there will be
one line enabling py2.7 and another line disabling it. If I recall
correctly, emerge will take the last one. Two, he will be back to the

started.

if you add one to use unstable packages, you have to do them all. It's
either all of them or none. I don't think I've ever seen a time where
one can be out of sync with the others.
It may help if you would post the errors you are getting and the
commands you are running to get them. It's pretty much impossible to
help when we don't know what is failing and why. Error messages help to
figure out what is failing.

Second,
make sure all the qt packages are at the same version. If needed, a
screenshot of the error is better than nothing.

is basically none of that. Everything happens
on the drive and once it hits the limit of what it can handle, things
start screeching to a halt with the OS left in the dark about what is
going on exactly. If SMR is going to be the new thing, it needs to work
better, RAID seems to really need that help.

I google the model number with the terms smr pmr and then see what it
provides. Generally, you can tell which it is BUT one never knows if
they change something.
What bothers me is the fact they don't disclose what a drive is.

for a lot of folks but for us power type users, it matters. You get
into servers and it matters a whole lot I'd imagine.
Maybe I need to buy some drives before I can't even get them at a
affordable price at all???

P. S. Thanks to Michael for the info. I'll read it in a bit. Having a
little sewer problem. Dirty job. -_o
