Change this to... MAKEOPTS="-j1" and re-run the build. You'd be surprised how often that is the problem. I run MAKEOPTS="-j1" on a Core Duo. It takes a few minutes longer than -j3 to update world, but it only takes one crash during a build at -j2 or -j3 to destroy any time that you "save". I know I'm being more conservative than the Gentoo handbook, but the smoother builds are worth it. And no, the -j option does *NOT* affect the speed of the binary that you've built. -- Walter Dnes <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
