Real issue here is that it doesn't pick a default config like x86, --config-kernel must be used
PPC64 team: in the genkernel/ppc64 directory I see kernel-2.6-pSeries and kernel-2.6.g5. For things to work by default one of these needs to be renamed to kernel-2.6; so please choose :-)
PPC64 team: Comment #3 please.
Can we just put a USE flag in genkernel. for example USE="pseries" would default a pSeries kernel and "g5" would do mac?
Here is a patch that will provide an example of how to leverage the "ibm" USE flag
Created attachment 56874 [details, diff] ibm_use-genkernel-3.1.6.patch
Fixed in CVS, thanks!
