Bug 39886 – livecd athlon-xp missing grp packages

• Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 43724
• Product: [OLD] Docs-user

[Description les elliott 2004-01-30 08:40:21 UTC]

I was at code listing 13 for x86 grp
mkdir -p /mnt/gentoo/usr/portage/packages/ALL
cp /mnt/cdrom/packages/ALL/* /mnt/gentoo/usr/portage/packages/ALL

error: cp cannot stat /mnt/cdrom/packages/ALL/*  no files or directories.
if I ls -la /mnt/cdrom/packages, it lists ALL
if I cd /mnt/cdrom/packages/All I get an error; no files or directories.
(ALL is empty.)



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.downloaded another copy of cd1
2.mounted the cd and checked /mnt/cdrom/packages/ALL
3.directory still empty

Actual Results:  
Same problem

Expected Results:  
/mnt/cdrom/packages/ALL should contain a large number of packages, etc.

I downloaded the i686 livecd (cd1) and mounted the cd.
ls /mnt/cdrom/packages/ALL displays all of the GRP packages.

I suppose I can use this cd or revert back to athlon-xp cd and not use the GRP
packages.

Created attachment 26876 [details, diff]
hb-install-finalise.xml.diff

Fix for Bug #39886 & #43740. There's no more packages/ folder in Gentoo 2004.0,
we need to fix this ASAP. Can any docdev confirm n review it?
