In the Gentoo's install documentation: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=6 At 6.a. (Chrooting), it explains to do the following steps: # chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash # env-update Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... # source /etc/profile However, when typing env-update, I get a permission denied error: # env-update bash: /usr/sbin/env-update: Permission Denied tried to run manually an env-update.sh script found at /sbin, but then I got the error: # /sbin/env-update.sh * Could not get SVCDIR! Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Do a stage two installation using the i686 file Actual Results: can't proceed with the installation Expected Results: the env-update script should work as expected
Which CD were you using?
I am using the CD install-x86-universal-2004.1.iso I have choosen to download the portage from the net, therefore my next step after # chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash # env-update Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache... # source /etc/profile Would be: # emerge sync I then tried to install the portage from the CD (and sync them latter on) but I got the same problem.
could you post your partions layout?
Perhaps you did not bind mount your /proc?
I did mount the /proc directory, but now I am not sure if I have looged out after that. What I am going to do is to test once again the step-by-step procedures and let you know.
Since I never heard back from you, I'm going to assume that this was fixed either by your second attempt, or by the 2004.2 release. If you are still having a problem with this same issue, make sure to REOPEN this bug.
I get this problem too, and now portage doesn't work, this didn't happen the first time but when I logged out to check lspci I got this error. Is it possible that portage somehow got porked?
Can you retrace your exact steps and reproduce the issue?
