I am not sure about these things so don't shoot me if I'm wrong, but the described methods didn't work. In Code Listing 2.2 the following: "tar xvjpf /path/to/build-<TAB>.tar.bz2" is wrong imho: it should be stage-<TAB>.tar.bz2, right? The virtual/bootloader can't be found in /etc/make.profile/packages, should it be something else? tar xvjpf gentoo.tbz2 -C /mnt/loop gave the following error: tar: You may not specify more than one `-Acdtrux' option Try `tar --help' for more information. cd /mnt/loop tar xvjpf gentoo.tbz2 cd umount /mnt/loop did the same job (I assume), altough as you see I had to leave the dir before umounting it the use of the directory /usr/local/bin for linux causes problems: that's not in my root's PATH, so I have to either switch to a regular user or listing 2.9 should use an absolute path Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.try to install uml :-) Actual Results: I had to improvise...
I've fixed most things, except the tar error you've received. This is because you tried "tar xvjpf ... -c ..." instead of "tar xvjpf ... -C ..." (capital C). Thanks for reporting!
