However, there seems to be some sort of problem going on with the directions in the guide, specifically with the configuring the settings section. Right after it says to do a 'chroot /mnt/gentoo' you're to perform the 'env-update' command. When running 'env-update' i get a "Error: /mnt/gentoo does not exist!" or some such error. This of course makes sense, since that dir is now the root directory, however something tells me that this *isn't* the way the command is supposed to work (i think). Is it supposed to do this? And of course, exiting out of the chroot'ed shell to run 'env-update' doesn't work b/c then it can't even find the command. I've also looked at the python code for env-update in /usr/sbin/env-update, however i haven't been able to come up with a solution to this problem. Any ideas? thanks, dave
