Hi,

I have run into the following problem trying to emerge gnome

emerging gnome came to a halt when emerging the package openjade 

My system (Pentium 200 MMX) get exhausted when compiling that package meaning 
I can't login on any of the console tty's and looged in shells seem to be 
stuck.

I aborted the emerge gnome ( CTRL-C)

I tried installing the binary package (gnome)

This failed with error : package gnome masked. Which it isn't on CD .

I took the brave step to run emerge depclean and now the half of my system
has vanished. Most of the basic OS commands are gone like ls, rm.....

What should I do ? untar stage 3 is what I think but is that a wise thing to 
do ??

thanks in advance for any helpful reply ...

rgds,

Peter
