I've installed a new system and the stage-3 I used did not have the 17.1 profile applied yet. As soon as I chroot'ed into the newly downloaded stage 3 fs, I sync'ed portage and then followed the instructions in the latest news article for migrating to the 17.1 profile. This was quick and easy to do, since I had not installed any packages yet. Once this was completed I duly followed the steps in the gentoo handbook as normal. I understand releng were about to prepare a new stage 3 and live media with profile 17.1, but I don't know if this has been released yet. Either way, if you find /lib32 and /usr/lib32 in your stage 3, just do as I did early in the installation and you'll make light work of it. -- Regards, Mick
