I am having trouble building Xfree86-4.2.0-r5.  As of now i am writing this with lynx (i hope the error attached ok) b/c I don't have any X installed, please help.  here's the error:  $i; \
 ln -s $real /var/tmp/portage/xfree-4.2.0-r5/image//usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rstart/commands/$i; \
 done;                                          \
 done;                                                  \

copied over /var/tmp/portage/xfree-4.2.0-r5/work/xc/programs/rstart/contexts to
/var/tmp/portage/xfree-4.2.0-r5/image//usr/X11R6/lib/X11/rstart/ after the
install started, and it worked, if I copied it over too early it deleted the
contexts folder!?!?, but this worked for me so I finally have X after 3 days !!!!
