Unless you really have to stick with Gentoo, I would recommend going to an older version of some other distro (with a compatible libc), or upgrading to Database 10g. That being said I have managed to install DB 9i on Gentoo, but only after installing gcc 2.95, compiling an older glibc somewhere else without NPTL, and I still had to build my tnsnames.ora manually. OK so I will create a chroot-environment with redhat *sigh* Thanks for the help, Konstantin Good luck! Chris PS: I'm doing an internship at Oracle, if that's any help.

Except for security problems (do them right away), do the emerge sync and emerge -p[uU]v frequently on your main machine, evaluate the results, wait a week or two, check forums and this list, then upgrade your primary machine, evaluate again, and then and only then proceed to upgrade the others. 2) Automation, IMO, will eventually lead to disaster, if you expect everything to work every time. Play safe. You really have nothing to gain at the bleeding edge. Don't be lulled into thinking that all packages marked stable are stable in every environment. 3) I've seldom regretted being a few updates behind, but I certainly remember the pain I experienced before I arrived at this approach. And I have only my single desktop system to think about. Well the idea is of automated building. Installing them is really a matter of 'admin says it's ok' The distcc idea mentioned in the other answer also came to my mind.

[gentoo-user] Distributed Gentoo Package management?
Hi, since RedHat's change of heart, we are thinking, of bringing the whole company to gentoo. In order to keep packages up to date and the whole thing mostly automatic we were wondering if there already is a projet. If not here's how we thought of doing it (comments welcome). One machine (the fastest one) keeps /usr/portage. Everybody else mounts this read only. Once every night (after the rsync) all machine do an emerge -uDp world and send the result to the server. The server has some kind of database knowing the cpu-type and start ebuild- packaging the necassary packages for each cpu-type. The packages are put in /usr/portage/packages/cputype/All Each machine has this mounted to /usr/portage/packages/All corresponding to its CPU-Type. And can than emerge -u the new packages. Machines of a different architecture (ie sun) are handled a little differently. The one problem I currently see is determining the order of the emerge -u's or could I use more than one tbz2-file at once so that portage determines the order. Also we will add some kind of flag for packages where it might be better, if human intervention happens before upgrading. These are our thoughts on this. Cheers, Konstantin -- Dipl-Inf.

It doesn't really matter which operating system you install first, as long as you have an HFS+ partition available to later install OS X (if you start with Linux), or some free space available for Linux (if you start with OS X). The 10GB listed as free space are what you will use to create your partitions for Linux. Just create a swap partition, a / partition, and optionally a boot partition, and you'll be ready to go.
