When I get to the emerge gentoo-sources step, it seems to go all the way, then ends with a status 1 exit message. The log files do not indicate the reason for failure, just that it happens. During the installation, it throws up some errors about econfdir and /dev/fd/62 doesn't exist (I don't have it written down handy). I'm thinking that happened before (when it worked) and didn't matter. I have tried several times. I've wiped the drive between tries, changed my mirror list, changed profile... no luck. I looked at the file date for the kernel source on a mirror. It's pretty old, so it should be the same as what worked before. I'm wondering about the ebuild, but I don't how such things work. It worked fine a couple weeks ago. Any suggestions about how to figure out the problem? I imagine that emerging gentoo-sources is best, but could I just download a 3.7.10 tgz file from www.kernel.org and make one that way? Adios, DW
