1 - gave the same errors as "emerge system" 2 - USE="java" emerge gcc - ran fine, but then "emerge system" gave the same old error 3 - the java-config option resulted in : jc_options: VM not found, use --list-available-vms
I'm currently trying Grant's suggestion to emerge system without java, then gcc with afterwards. So far, it's gotten farther than it was, (not done yet...) so I'm hopefull. Thanks, Michael http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=130729&highlight=db+gcj http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=137967&highlight=db+gcj There are about three different suggestions there to fix it: 1. "emerge portage" 2. USE="java" emerge gcc 3. java-config --set-system-vm=blackdown-jdk-1.4.1 good luck.
