Hi folks,
I've got a tricky task for automatic update script, which requires

The script has a list of packages which should be updated

Hi,
Do I shoot into my own feet when copying the /var/lib/world-file
from my 32bit system to my 64bit system and doing a "emerge -e world"

I am not talking specifically about PIC/non-PIC code here. PIC is

A risk is always potential. A potential risk is when you are not sure

Hi,
currently I am on the way to install a AMD64 root system.
I use the AMD64 gentoo iso to boot into a 64bit system.
There was a net-connection without any problems (using DSL and dhcp).
After several steps I chrooted into the new environment and ...
no net anymore. eth0 was up (ifconfig) but
