Then I would suggest that you reboot, then change to single user mode,
remount the filesystem read-only and start your check.
The second suggestion that I have would be to search the rc scripts and
find out where mount is called to remount the fs read/write and stuff a
bash command right before it

IIRC, the OP said this doesn't work, because fsck.reiserfs doesn't do a
full check/fix with the normal boottime options to fsck.
I know *why* this was done, but I think it's a poor decision
Mine (and as far as I can see all the others) were 3.3.4. It should be

For those that may have missed it, after upgrading to gcc 3.3.5 you need to
run "fix_libtool_files.sh 3.3.4" to get compiles working again.
But that raises a question - why are we passing the old version to the

Kick that old P166 to the curb and pick up a used PII/PIII either online or
from your local paper. Might cost you $100-$200 bucks, but it will save you

Howdy,
I have an old i-opener computer that has a MINIMAL gentoo install
with X.org and flux. Running everything off the other computer and
just using the thin-client for display, it works fine. On the computer
itself there is abiwrod/gnumeric/dillo/aterm and some other basic

Naturally a lot depends on the exact hardware specs. Commonly spoken: a
machine like yours was once able to run a Windows 95 - so there can't be
a single reason for not get Gentoo running ;-)
I myself run a couple of pretty old machines (once high quality servers)

As Nick suggested, use it as a thin client. Install LTSP onto
one of your main machines and boot the P166 diskless as a client
