[gentoo-user] uninstalled linux-headers

[Tamer Higazi]

Hi people!
I uninstalled the linux-headers and the kernel-sources by accident, how
can I install then again?! Any ideas?!

I tried, but got at the linux-headers problems.....

I have a linux-rescuecd on a usb stick, might it work over that way ?!

How is anybody supposed to answer that? You tried something but you don't
say what and it gave a problem, which you also keep to yourself. If you
want helpful answers, you have to ask helpful questions.

It just tried that, out of curiosity:

I uninstalled linux-headers, and while trying to reinstall them, I get
this error:

Luckily, I qpkg'ed linux-headers before.

Maybe you can try installing a binary package of linux-headers from
tinderbox? http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/

1st question) where are the headers installed at all?!

Michael!
You didn't get my question.... Where does Gentoo install the
linux-headers, after compilining on the system?!

They are installed in:

   /usr/include/asm-generic
   /usr/include/mtd
   /usr/include/linux
   /usr/include/asm

there is no compilation going on; these are just headers.

Re: [gentoo-user] Re: uninstalled linux-headers

[Tamer Higazi]

Hi Nikos!
That was it.... thank you very much for your support.


I took the latest amd stage3 from a mirror and copied the folders
content on my linux system.


After then I remerged linux-headers. of course gentoo found a lots of
file collisions, but then merged at last the package.

So WTF do you get? This is a help list not a game of twenty questions.

There's a linux/errno.h in the kernel sources, maybe they need to be
emerged first.
