 Genkernel issue HI, I have been trying to install Gentoo 1.4 from the live cd for the last week or so. Each time I run genkernel I get the following message: Copying System.map to /boot/kernel-2.4.20-gentoo-r5... mv: cannot stat "/boot/System.map": No such file or directory. Now, I have continued the installation ( Twice before) at the /sbin/lilo point I get an error. Same when installing with grub. I am following the latest install doc's to the letter. I am new at this and I am trying to install to an IBM Thinkpad 390x, PIII 500MHz. Any help is greatly appreciated. Steve      |

The System.map issue shouldn't affect anything. -- Jon Portnoy avenj/irc.freenode.net #gentoo, irc.oftc.net #cola Opinions expressed are my own, not those of Gentoo Linux or any other entity I am associated with unless stated otherwise. |

Is /boot mounted? I seem to recall it is not automatically mounted during the install. -peter -- 7:49am up 96 days, 44 min, 1 user, load average: 1.03, 1.08, 1.03 |

I continued the installed and it worked this time. Now I am trying to get some packages installed, I managed to get KDE installed it took several tries, and I had to export PKGDIR/mnt/cdrom in order to do this. I am fairly new to Linux/BSD but am having fun. just wish I had broadband, each time I use emerge -k or --usepkg it still tries to pull the packages from the net. Thanks again Steve |

With the new GRP install, some packages you'd need to install things like Gnome, didn't come on the LiveCD's so either way you'd have to download some packages. If you do an 'emerge -p <package name>' and see what packages you need, you could just fetch them with 'emerge -f <packacge name>' so you already have the source on your computer and can just compile later without having access to the net at all times. Depending on what you're trying to compile later on, this would probably be the easiest option. -- -.surtin.- | You will reach the highest possible point -o) | in your business or profession. /\ | _\_v | |
