Hi Jason, Marius and others
Thanks for your advice.
I made another round and still met with problem as follows;
1) unpack the portage snapshot 2) upto step 15 - without complaint 3) # emerge -k genkernel ..... .... -- !empty dir /usr/share/doc/genkernel-1.5 -- !empty dir /usr/share/doc -- !empty dir /usr/share -- !empty dir /usr/sbin -- !empty dir /usr -- !empty dir /etc ... .. sys-kernel/genkernel selected: none protected: 1.5 omitted: none ... ..
# genkernel /usr/src/linux doesn't seem to exist. Please emerge your favorite kernel source tree first.
Try 'emerge gentoo-sources' or 'emerge vanilla-sources' first.
