[gentoo-user] You have no world file

2011-04-20 Thread Dan Cowsill

Alright, so... I haven't mentioned it up until now because I didn't feel it would have any bearing on the problem, but the installation in question is a VirtualBox guest operating system running on a Windows host. Since I didn't have any particular attachment to the installation, I decided to
