Description Matt Taylor 2004-04-21 22:09:42 UTC 
According to the installation guide, emerge system should happen after bootstrap. However, emerge system fails when merging iptables because the symlink /usr/src/linux does not exist.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Boot Hardened LiveCD
2. Download and extract stage1
3. Bootstrap
4. Run emerge system
Actual Results:  
The emerge fails on iptables complaining that there is no /usr/src/linux 
symlink (because at this point in the installation guide the user has not been 
instructed to set this up)

Expected Results:  
Presumably the kernel should already be set up; I don't really know.

This one is a profile error.  I removed iptables from the 2004.1 profile, but forgot to remove it from the 1.4 profile.  All fixed now.
