There shouldn't, unless you used some strange bind mounts. (bind mounting /dev, /sys, /usr/portage, and /proc is ok. (If you build binary packages, and it is a 32bit chroot, put them somewhere else). Even building in a subdirectory works (I've done it often enough). Paul -- Paul de Vrieze Gentoo Developer Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Homepage: http://www.devrieze.net
