I'm new to gentoo so I decided to get it from liveDVD. After I started install program (same for GTK and Command Line one) partition my drive and specified mountpoints (after several crashes I tried also default layout with the same effect) installation program crashes. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Checked if the installation media isn't corrupt (md5sum & reburning ISO on other DVD) 2. Checked if the partitioning and mountpoints are correct 3. Tried default layout Actual Results: istall.log failed: GLI: June 21 2008 15:16:41 - Gentoo Linux Installer version 0.6.5 GLI: June 21 2008 15:17:13 - Mounted mountpoint: / GLI: June 21 2008 15:17:13 - Created mountpoint /boot GLI: June 21 2008 15:17:13 - Mounted mountpoint: /boot GLI: June 21 2008 15:18:34 - Exception received duting 'Unpack stage tarball': CopyPackageToCrootError :FATAL: copy_pckg_to_chroot: Could not execute pkg_setup for GLI: June 21 2008 15:18:34 - Traceback (most recent call last): GLI: June 21 2008 15:18:34 - File "/opt/installer/GLIClientController.py", line 122, inr run func() GLI: June 21 2008 15:18:34 - File "/opt/installer/GLIArchitectureTemplate.py", line 417, in unpack_stage_tarball self._portage.copy_pkg_to_chroot(pkg, True, ignore_missint=True) GLI: June 21 2008 15:18:34 - File "/opt/installer/GLIPortage.py", line 222, in copy_pkg_to_chroot raise GLIException("CopyPackageToChrootError", 'fatal', 'copy_pkg_to_chroot', "Could not execute pkg_setup for " + package) GLI: June 21 2008 15:18:34 - GLIException: CopyPackageToChrootError :FATAL: copy_pkg_to_chroot Could not execute pkg_setup for Expected Results: Install Gentoo Linux properly :)
Have the same problem. Gentoo Linux 2008.0_beta2 LiveDVD Amd64 platform. Manually i can extract all 3 stages without problems. Any ideas? Now I'm downloading livecd-amd64-installer-2008.0_beta2.iso. Hope there will not be any problems..
The installer is deprecated.
