Subject: [gentoo-amd64] Install snapshot update?
Date: Tue, 9 Jan 2007 09:09:59 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <001f01c733f7$d98291a0$6f0a0a0a@RDLaptop3> (raw)

I just went through the install process for amd64 on my Acer 5050 laptop (turion) and ran into a few problems with the install, mostly with out of date packages (xterm-215 is no longer available).  It took 4 attempts to get to the install portion where I could reboot and resume the build after the emerge failed.

Is there some way to have the installer run emerge --sync before it starts building the system?
