Hi Jude, There are few decisions you have to make before you consider how to partition your disk, which affect where /boot may be located. 1. EFI System Partition (ESP) This is a GPT partition of type ef00 and formatted as FAT32, necessary for an EFI motherboard which is not configured to

Re: [gentoo-user] gentoo boot content in wrong partition

Here's the script I used to get from an existing system into the gentoo environment to install the gentoo system. I started with stage3 and chose openrc and went down that path. #!/usr/bin/bash # file: sgentoo.sh - setup gentoo mounts echo "once disk setup from gentoo handbook is complete" echo

[gentoo-user] gentoo boot content in wrong partition

After having followed the handbook I end up with /boot in /sda3 even though mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/efi had been run and /dev/sda1 is vfat 32 format and is efi system. What did I do wrong? -- Jude "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.

Re: [gentoo-user] where is linux-firmware.log?

I have tried a couple different things so linux-firmware and other packages can find the boot location and none of them have worked. I'm going with openrc and efi and gpt. originally I made an efi partition and mounted it mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/gentoo/efi once the efi directory had been created.

For what it's worth I've been using gerbera for years, it'll pass-through supported videos/codecs or you can set it up to transcode. Highly recommend it. On my roku TV's I just use the roku media player, it'll see UPnP servers just fine.

Re: [gentoo-user] mirrorselect build failed

Jude, the initial CFLAGS I suggested are safe, but suboptimal. They do not tune your system's compiler to utilise all of your CPU's instructions. In the first instance, you should set the CFLAGS as appropriate for your PC and specifically include -march=native, as suggested by Waldo. Please

Hi Michael, -march=x86-64 and -mtune=generic will not speed up your OS installation. These flags tell compilers to produce binaries that can run on any AMD64 system and that aren't optimized for your specific system. These flags have no effect on binary packages, since those have already been

Re: [gentoo-user] mirrorselect build failed

Hi Jude, If you intend to use Gentoo's precompiled binary packages, to speed up your OS installation, you should have 'generic' CFLAGS; e.g.: CFLAGS="-march=x86-64 -mtune=generic -O2 -pipe" Please check these pages: https://www.gentoo.org/news/2023/12/29/Gentoo-binary.html

Hi Jude, When the build failed, emerge asked you post 3 things when you need support. Of those, you've managed to omit the most important thing, i.e. the build log. Without it, it would be impossible to help you. Regards, Waldo On Thu, May 23, 2024, 23:46 Jude DaShiell wrote: > Portage 3.0.63
