Hi group, Using xubuntu on a usb stick to install gentoo on a eeepc, 4g, 900A. I've gotten as far as kernel config(Quick-install Guide -> Kernel Configuration) but when I try to emerge gentoo-sources portage can't resolve any of the addresses and the process fails.
Does it have something to do with the previous section, "Set your host name and domain name"? I followed the model given: hosts: 127.0.0.1 eeebox.at.eeeplace eeebox localhost hostname: HOSTNAME="eeebox" BTW, it took 22mins for the portage snapshot to be unpacked, is that similar to anybody else's experience? BTW2, I'm using dialup via a serial/usb cable to complete the job at home, whereas the stage3-i686-20090422 and portage-20090502 were downloaded over wireless at the Wifi-Cafe. Don't tell me the numbers must match exactly! mw __________________________________________________________________ Make your browsing faster, safer, and easier with the new Internet Explorer® 8.
