I will try that. Although I still don't see where it says to cd to /usr/portage: [snipped from http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-sparc-install.xml] Code listing 4.4 # mount -o bind /proc proc # chroot /mnt/gentoo bin/bash # env-update # source /etc/profile # emerge rsync # rm etc/make.profile Select the right platform, for sparc64: Code listing 4.5 # uname -m sparc64 # ln -s ../usr/portage/profiles/default-sparc64-1.4 etc/make.profile Or for sparc: Code listing 4.6 # uname -m sparc # ln -s ../usr/portage/profiles/default-sparc-1.4 etc/make.profile If starting with stage 1, run: Code listing 4.7 # scripts/bootstrap.sh This may take a while. You now have a stage 2 Gentoo. Then: Code listing 4.8 # export CONFIG_PROTECT="" # emerge system You now have a stage 3 Gentoo. > Also, did you do the env-update and source /etc/profile steps?
