The bug report includes a .config file, which has set:
CONFIG_NET_NS=y
CONFIG_NAMESPACES=y
CONFIG_PID_NS=y
CONFIG_NET_NS=y
among others.
Maybe one zgrep CONFIG_NET /proc/config.gz could give as more info.
With complete honesty I do not know what the next reasonable step is.
I have unplugged the machine because this has taken a week of my time
and the end result is "does not work". So I may look at it again next
week.
For now I have an ORACLE S7-2 server to begin work on and my plan is to
get Linux running on that. With a great deal of luck the Gentoo handbook
procedure will "just work" or maybe we land here in two days with the
same problem. Regardless I would rather deal with this using a 4.2GHz
processor than the old old SPARCv9 500MHz unit.
get into kernel sources dir
I don't think that is specific enough. I see a whole whack of stuff :
chroot# cd /var/db/repos/gentoo/sys-kernel/
chroot# ls -la
total 144

chroot#
make menuconfig
I don't think that will work unless a pile of ncurses stuff is in place.
switch on CONFIG_NET
If I can ever get to it.
make
install the kernel
If lucky :/
