[gentoo-user] Help! How to fix my libc6.so?
After an failed emerge world, my compiler chain is broken.

[gentoo-user] RAID 10 help
I have four identical SATA disks and want to create a Software RAID 10 array for my new gentoo system. But I am quite a newbie for the RAID area. I googled but found nothing teach me how to setup a RAID10 on four disks -- all the tutorials, howto, etc. are talking about setup RAID1 or RAID0 or mix these two up on two disks. I fdisk all my four disks to the following: livecd ~ # sfdisk -d /dev/sda # partition table of /dev/sda unit: sectors /dev/sda1 : start= 63, size= 144522, Id=fd /dev/sda2 : start= 144585, size= 1975995, Id=82 /dev/sda3 : start= 2120580, size= 39086145, Id=fd /dev/sda4 : start= 41206725, size=115089660, Id=fd /dev/sdb, /dev/sdc and /dev/sdd are all fdisk'ed as the same as /dev/sda. As grub cannot be setup on RAID0 (neither RAID 1+0 nor RAID 0+1), I have to create a four-partion RAID1 with /dev/sd[abcd]1 and mount it as /boot. Then I want both my / and /var are RAID10. I use the following schema: /dev/sda3/dev/sdb3/dev/sdc3/dev/sdd3 |||| +--(RAID1)---++---(RAID1)--+ | | /dev/md3 /dev/md4 | | +-(RAID0)--+ | /dev/md5 and mount /dev/md5 as /. The same as /dev/sd[abcd]4 for a /dev/md8 as /var. After mkraid, I followed the Gentoo Handbook and installed system, build all RAID and driver mapping options into kernel. But after reboot, kernel panic! The error message says it can not mount / on /dev/md5 because it doesn't exist. From the messages on the boot screen, it seems the kernel can assemble the two RAID1's and create /dev/md3 and /dev/md4, but it can not assemble /dev/md5. Maybe because /dev/md5 is based on two md devices? I tried RAID1 on two RAID0's but with no luck, either.

I am installing gentoo on a new machine with an onboard Marvel 8E8053 Gigabit LAN controller. However, LiveCD 2005.1 can not detect this controller, both sk98lin and skge don't work. After googling, I find this artical http://pavuk.7gods.org/notebook.html#network and know that I must patch the kernel and recompile it. But the LiveCD minimal has no gcc built in.

Still - do you have both SMBFS and CIFS support built into your kernel, or just CIFS? If the later is true I would include SMBFS as well and try the same thing with good old SMB as well (you may use both simultanously anyway). I add smbfs support in my kernel and tried (after change the filename to an English-only one). It works. However, as my previous mail said, using smbfs doesn't address my problem. I have plenty (~100) large files to transfer, and maybe you've guessed, they are movie files, with Chinese movie title in the filenames. And the movies directories on my winbox have also Chinese characters. If I stick in the smbfs solution, I'll have to do too many manual filename change things. So, I still prefer to find out what's wrong with my cifs and fix it. Interessting details missing: your kernel and windoze version?

[gentoo-user] vmware guest os timer extremely slow
Hardware: Thinkpad R52, pentium-m 1.73G, Host: suspend2-sources-2.6.13-r4, vmware-workstation-4.5.2.8848-r7 Guest OS: Windows 2000 professional The windows guest os is extemely slow. After double-click the date at bottom-right corner and show the second hand of the clock, I find that it cost more than 10 seconds for the guest os to increase *one* second. That is, the timer in the guest os is 10 times slower than the host. How can I resolve this? One of the support articals on the vmware's website says /dev/rtc is needed to give high-resolution timer, so I recompiled my kernel and now I have a /dev/rtc (which symlink to /dev/misc/rtc).

[gentoo-user] install from stage1: why gcc-3.3.6?
I bought a new laptop with pentium-m CPU and installing gentoo on it from stage1. The gcc version on livecd (2004.3) is 3.3.x, but I want use -march=pentium-m in my CFLAGS and gcc 3.3.x doesn't support it. So I add the following line in /etc/portage/package.keywords: sys-devel/gcc ~x86 and run bootstrap.sh with the default CFLAGS -mcpu=i686, and get gcc 3.4.4. Then I change my CFLAGS to -march=pentium-m and execute emerge -e system as Handbook says. But it failed when emerging gcc-3.3.6 because of unknown value for -march=. gcc-3.3.6? I don't need it! I have gcc-3.4.4 unmasked! I check the package list of emerge -ep system, and find both gcc-3.3.6 and gcc-3.4.4 are to be emerged. Why?
