I'm sure glibc was part of the problem. A third syxtem, an amd64, sits just slobering and drooling about; it will not even allow ls or cat to run..... so I'm not so sure this one can be saved without a re-installation. It'd sure been nice if there was a little bit more detail on this, problem and recovery options. I've googled for links that help, but found nothing. So how is the new 2006.1 liveCD working these days? I'm soon to find out, on at least one system, maybe (3), Any ideas on recovery mechanisms, for this make.profile/glibc problem are most welcome...... I think I'll just drink (quite a lot) and read this list to see how the smarter half of this list dance around these pending upgrades. I'm quite sure it's my fault, I just do not have the fortitude to fight through another twisted hack-fest of a weekend. Besides it's labor_day weekend and this is one wage-slave that is feeling throughly defeated..... My solution is to drink enough that my singing actually starts to sound acceptable.... ymmv: (Tequila!) cheers! James -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
