 Hi,

 Due to problems with coreutils w/ 'xattr' USE-flag (cp) can't remerge it
 as some other packages.
 So need a binary package w/o xattr, a newer version will
 probably solve this too (need a i686-binary).
 Seems i could also use the install disk to get it but don't have one
 available.
 Any hints or help will be appreciated.
 Thanks, Rumen

busybox ;)

you should have installed it. just create a cp symlink and then remerge 
coreutils with the buildpkg option (just in case the symlink does not get 
overwritten/removed). untar the package, rm the symlink, mv cp from the pgk to 
/bin.

Hi,

Thanks for the hint, once used busybox to recover but was a long ago.
Didn't expected that 'xattr' will create such a mess (with reiser4).
Thanks again.
