Typically, Portage will take care of its own and arrive at a suitable order of updates without breaking things. If there is some Blocking situation other steps would be necessary, but I suspect in this instance just one package will be held back (VBox), until prerequisites have been updated first. Since @system will contain the toolchain, it will be enough to update this set before building the kernel, then @world to finish things off.

Update the kernel and reboot (keeping the old kernel for a while) Perhaps you missed the point that some of the world update requires the updated kernel. I'd do the same as Thelma. -- Regards, Peter.

Update world first, because some updated packages may be involved in kernel building 2. Reboot with the current working kernel and check everything else works 3. Update the kernel and reboot (keeping the old kernel for a while) That's two reboots, but for a remote system I'd keep on the safe side. Have a nice compile time ! Mickaël
