just do etc-update there's a new mirror in make.global http://gentoo.oregonstate.edu//distfiles/
<dumb mode=on> kniffel root # etc-update Scanning Configuration files... Exiting: No files to work on! </dumb> now, that didn't help! whats the point? thanks to mirrorselect I switch mirrors a couple times a day - and happen just now to have distro.ibiblio.org selected - how i see it, this is in no way connected to the original problem, being: SRC_URI needs an update... or am i missing something...
Created attachment 8177 [details] Ebuild for Sys-Apps/Lilo
Comment on attachment 8177 [details] Ebuild for Sys-Apps/Lilo It's the Ebuild to insert the new version of Lilo
this is just a quick around for you this _new_ mirror should be faster than ibiblio
this is recidculous. WORKSFORME id appreciate if people wouldnt post attached ebuild files for when they wanna show everybody how they changed one line or something when the problem was a mirror thing.
