Hei I tried this but just got the message -/bin/bash: emerge: command not found I should state that I am just at the initial stages of setting up gentoo ... just booted a livecd and looking for a way to get the network connection up so that I can download the files that I need. I do realise that all the files I need are on the cd but wanted to download everything from the internet rather than use what is on the CD. Maybe I should reconsider this strategy. t-ir > > then run adsl-setup > > use that config tool to set your parameters > > Hope it helps > > > > On Fri, 28 Jan 2005 09:26:39 +0200, Moshe Kaminsky > <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > * [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> [27/01/05 17:14]: > > > Hello > > > > > > > > > This is my first post to this list. > > > > > > > > > I started to think that it would nice to try to install > > > Gentoo linux at home and start to learn how gentoo works. > > > > > > > > > I downloaded the lastest universal livecd, booted with > > > the parameters �gentoo nodhcp� (as I use pppoe with my isp) > > > pressed f2 and choose the numbers for a finnish keyboard. > > > > > > > > > I brought up the ethernet interface with �ifconfig eth0 up� > > > and ran adsl-setup and answered all the questions correctly. > > > Unfortunately, when I ran adsl-start the connection did not > > > come up - I include the results of �DEBUG=1 adsl-start� below. > > > > > > > I think the adsl-start docs say you should not bring up eth0 yourself. > > Maybe that's the problem. > > > > Moshe > > > > > > > > -- > [email protected] mailing list -- [email protected] mailing list
