Howdy folks. Today I have a fun exercise but am short on ideas. Any suggestions?
I have an old hard drive from my router, a Pentium III. Now i've gone and put that hard drive in an Athlon-based machine, which doesn't support the P-III instruction set completely. The computer boots and the kernel runs just fine, but many of the programs do not work. The biggest thorn in my side is emerge not working; therefore, I can't fix the problem with a simle empty-tree emerge. I am considering doing a full reinstall. But, I don't want to be bothered. What do you all think of the idea of extracting a stage3 onto an existing installation? Is there any way this could yield a set of utilities (namely python or emerge, whichever isn't working now) enough so that I could successfully issue an 'emerge -e world' ? Thanks for your time and suggestions, Dan Farrell -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
