I opted to build everything from scratch. Stage1 went fine, however Stage2 completed 1 with one error, however I can't figure out what that error is. My failure to read carefully enough. If you install gentoo from Stage 1, you don't need Stage 2 or Stage 3. Stage 2/3 are alternative install packages that save you some compiles. Hrmmm. THat's not what the documentation on gentoo's website suggests. My reading of their dox indicate that stage 1 compiles the basic tools of the OS (glibc, binutils, gcc, and a few others) from source, and stage 2 then compiles just about everything else. Am i missing something obvious here? Here's the relevent section from the install guide Now, let us quickly review the install process. First, we will download, burn and boot a LiveCD. After getting a root prompt, we will create partitions, create our filesystems, and extract either a stage1, stage2 or stage3 tarball. If we are using a stage1 or stage2 tarball, we will take the appropriate steps to get our system to stage3. Once our system is at stage3, we can configure it (customize configuration files, install a boot loader, etc) and boot it and have a fully-functional Gentoo Linux system. Depending on what stage of the build process you're starting from, here is what is required for installation: stage tarball requirements for installation 1 partition/filesystem setup, emerge sync, bootstrap, emerge system, emerge kernel sources, final configuration 2partition/filesystem setup, emerge sync, emerge system, emerge kernel sources, final configuration 3partition/filesystem setup, emerge sync, final configuration As you can see, the activities are different to get to the same point. Starting from stage 1, you have to go through all the activities. Starting from stage 2 you omit the bootstrap process. Starting from stage 3, you have a runnable system immediately with the standard optimizations from the tarball you selected. Back to Tom's point earlier, emerge sync, emerge -p system. If anything shows up needing upgrade, emerge system. Continue with the process. As I said earlier, if the error is in the update info section of emerge, it will most likely disappear later. Portage is a work in progress, so there will be glitches from time to time. Watch closely for errors. It is also possible that some package that was presumed to be stable really didn't have enough testing to prove its stability in all situations. -- Collins Richey - Denver Area if you fill your heart with regrets of yesterday and the worries of tomorrow, you have no today to be thankful for. ___ Linux-users mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe/Suspend/Etc - http://www.linux-sxs.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-users
Re: gentoo stage 2 question
Gentoo has three stages - basically starting points. Stage 1 is real basic - it gives you a base system, enough to create a system and then proceed on. Yes, stage 1 is a bootstrap process. Stage 2 and 3 tarballs have more stuff compiled in them so you loose optimizations but you have a more complete system. If you start from stage 1 you have to do what is essentially stage 2 and 3 but you don't use the tarballs - you just emerge system and then emerge world which gives you stage 2 and 3.

As a ham, I volunteer during these events (ski-sea we fuild about 100 to 120 operators) All along the course-route they have ambulances staged at what is deemed as danger points. Each year they have had to pickup and transport cyclist for medical attention. Some of these misshaps are real eye-openers as I never at one time thought that cycling could be that dangerous. Lance has demonstrated throughout the race the courage and dedication to a sport (as you have pointed out here) that isn't all that popular or even well known in the US. This in my view makes his victory that much more meaningful. He has every reason to be proud, and all of you south of the 49th have every reason to be proud of him.

Re: [OT] Congrats
Klaus - How right you are! That's kind of why I wanted to point that out as that is quite a feat by both individuals, Indurain and Armstrong. Miguel Indurain was a great one! One other fellow has won it six (6) times, but not consecutively. That's why I wonder about next year ... will Lance seek a go at a sixth one or pass on it? There are many younger, stronger ones coming along. Lance is incredible, but we all realize that with age comes ... a small loss of our physical strength and endurance - however, experience can be the edge. Jan Ullrich amazed me in watching him so much that he never really left his seat while pumping away on those mountain climbs. He's a big fellow by average standards compared to most of the riders ... he is damn good as many of the others are too ... watch out for the Spainard duo ... aaah, it was just a great TdF ...

Using XFCE 4... What can I turn off to make it faster
Hi All, I have just moved to using XFCE4 since I was getting tired of waiting for KDE apps to launch on my PIII 600 Box. It has sped things up considerably but I would like to know if anyone has any pointers on improving performance on Linux boxes... I have Mandrake 9.1 2.4.21 kernel XFCE4 PIII 600/512MB RAM it is running Apache 2.x and Postfix and squirrel mail. Actually can anyone point me to a book on performance tuning. Also I noticed that Keith(Antoine) is back online what was the story behind your disappearence?.. everyone was worried about you.

Re: Using XFCE 4... What can I turn off to make it faster
Hi James. I use XFCE 4 on a number of laptops and what has helped me most is running prelink over the install. This is done on GENTOO, but I would assume that prelink can be found on the net somewhere and used on your Mandrake as well. Cheers.
