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? -- David Pyke Vice President, Research Research Dimensions 416-486-6161 800-663-2973 -- gentoo-amd64@gentoo.org mailing list
