Hi, I try to chroot to a brand new environment, freshly unpacked from stage 3: kyle # chroot /mnt/hdb/ /bin/bash FATAL: kernel too old kyle # uname -a Linux kyle 2.6.8-3-686 #1 Tue Dec 5 21:26:38 UTC 2006 i686 GNU/Linux After that, I unpacked stage 1. The boostrap worked fine until during compilation of glibc a command ".././scripts/mkinstalldirs" stoped with (yes!): "FATAL: kernel too old". An strace of the chroot command ends with the uname function call yielding the above results and returning 0. Then, the message is output and exit is called. Google did not give me any hints. Thanks in advance for any hints. Bertram -- Bertram Scharpf Stuttgart, Deutschland/Germany http://www.bertram-scharpf.de -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
This happens when you try to chroot to a system that has a much newer kernel than the one you're running. The solution is to use a newer gentoo boot cd. -- - Mark Shields
