I tried the 2006.0 gui installer the other day. First pass I spent the time to customize the config so it rewarded me with an emerge error, which stopped the install. OK says I, let's just try it with the defaults. This time another package's build failed. Gave up on the GUI installer. Did a stage 3 manual install straight from the handbook. Worked like a charm. So I'd recommend doing a manual install. Really, it doesn't take much longer than the gui install, and you can recover from any problems. HTH, Roy -- [email protected] mailing list
