This is my third bug today on the same Stage 1 install of 1.4 on Athlon-XP. This time the undownloadable package is sysvinit-2.84. cistron.nl returned a anonymous logon error and unc.edu did not have the file: >>> emerge (5 of 6) sys-apps/baselayout-1.8.6.8-r1 to / >>> Downloading ftp://ftp.cistron.nl/pub/people/miquels/software/sysvinit-2.84.tar.gz --16:09:37-- ftp://ftp.cistron.nl/pub/people/miquels/software/sysvinit-2.84.tar.gz => `/usr/portage/distfiles/sysvinit-2.84.tar.gz' Resolving ftp.cistron.nl... done.

I'm upgrading this to blocker because AFAIK, this bug causes ALL stage 1 installs to fail. If that isn't blocking, I'm not sure what is. :-)
The problem has been fixed. Someone must have changed the ebuild or put the file back into the expected package location. Thanks!!
mirrors are not instantaneous
*** Bug 27785 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Given, but should it not try the actual URI of the package if mirrors fail ? Meaning, are we 100% sure portage tries the original SRC_URI if mirrors fails ?
