Hello
I'm still experiencing problems when trying to build gentoo from scratch.
To summarize the core of my problem: I want to build a little network
using gentoo. But: all machines are CD-less. So installing the
exclusive-bin version (for me) seems to be a nontrivial task.
I once succeeded (thanks to x86 on #gentoo) by using a different
linux's boot disk which provided me with NFS, chroot and working
internet connection to build gentoo from the 1.0_rc5-r4 build
image.
But since then I was not able to reproduce this success.
With the 1.0_rc5-r4 build image I end up getting the same
problems Marius Brueggemann got (bootstrap complaining,
seems to be the lvm related problem already reported to this
list).
When I extract build-ix86-1.0_rc6-r4.tbz2 I can neither
do env-update nor emerge rsync both complaining about
make.profile not being where it should.
Using build-ix86-1.0_rc6-r4.tbz2 and portage-20010827.tar.bz2
I could complete the bootstrap but emerge system first stopped
on building diffutils complaining about makeinfo missing.
After manually emerging texinfo I could resume emerge system
but it stops again with netkit-telnet:
make[1]: g++: command not found.
Is there a better way to get gentoo on a CD-less machine
(are there gentoo boot-floppies? Maybe the problem arises
from the fact that I'm chrooting from a different system)?
Or am I doing something seriously wrong?
regards
Tibor Rudas
