gentoo: emerge system: crap!
I'm not saying emerge is crap; I'm saying "crap" as in it crapped out, rolled snake eys, box cars, etc.
OK, I'm installing gentoo 2004.3 and and proceeding into Stage 3. That means I run emerge system Well, everything goes fine for a few hours. Then it craps out on a certain package: Code:
>>> emerge (1 of 44) net-misc/rsync-2.5.6-r3 to / Thanks. |
ahhhh....that'll be an ipv6 type ftp server then and i bet you're on an IPv4 connection (just like most people are)
Simply means that the default download mirror list as created by that mirrors command is no good for you. Go to gentoo.org, find four full urls for mirrors local to you and type over the ones in your make.conf file sorted. |
Thanks. Now what do I use for an editor?
|
Never mind - I did with with some grepping, echoing and redirection.
|
Also use the --resume parm on the emerge - no good redoing all that again ;)
edit - nano is the usual Gentoo editor. See the handbook |
