[gentoo-user] what must be writable by portage
Hello, I have a number of gentoo systems and have a central /usr/portage that's share by nfs. There are also binary packages that are shared and available for all. The nfs-exports are read-only If I set up a new machine and it only has read-only access from the be- ginning I have no problems. However recently a machine was added that was set up by itself and that one falls with read-only access on its face when I try to emerge something. Mostly in the fixpackages part. What do I need to reset to make this work more smoothly? Konstantin -- Dipl-Inf. Konstantin Agouros aka Elwood Blues. Internet: elwood@agouros.de Otkerstr. 28, 81547 Muenchen, Germany.
