Hello Brett, I had a 2.5 kernel tree sitting in /usr/src DOH! Should fit now. :) (i was over by 30 Mb) I also removed sun-j2jdk as all the ebuilds seem to rely on blackdown. What's the deal with /var/edb/dep? Should it be included? I kept /usr/portage but the archives weren't clear with the dep dir.
