Re: [gentoo-user] Internet
Once you are inside the SystemRescueCD (has finished booting) try to start the network. It should get an IP from the router's dhcp server. If it doesn't, then try to assign manually one to eth0, and test. OK. I make an ifconfig and the adress is: 169.264.240.204 and of course Firefox has no connection Was it that what you meant?

So to stop dhcpcd from touching your DNS or MTU settings you would do:- dhcpcd -C resolv.conf -C mtu eth0 yoyo I use the google dns servers so I created a /etc/resolv.conf file and set the i attribute on it: chattr +i /etc/resolv.conf that way it can't be removed or overwritten and you won't have that problem no matter what dhcp client you are using Does this still work? config_eth0=( dhcp ) dhcp_eth0=nodns dns_servers_eth0=8.8.8.8 8.8.4.4 This worked before the openrc update but I guess it still does.

No issues with 3.1 here though, at least none that are related to python. Why do they set it default by stage1 and warn not to use it at the same time? Gentoo does not use that type of install anymore for standard installs. Stage 1 is for experimentation and developers only, not for regular users. The rules that apply to stage 1 do not apply to ordinary installs. See http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/faq.xml#stage12 How do I Install Gentoo Using a Stage1 or Stage2 Tarball? The Gentoo Handbook only describes a Gentoo installation using a stage3 tarball. However, Gentoo still provides stage1 and stage2 tarballs. This is for development purposes (the Release Engineering team starts from a stage1 tarball to obtain a stage3) but shouldn't be used by users: a stage3 tarball can very well be used to bootstrap the system.
