directory, follow by the book the install doc from
gentoo website and when starting the bootstrap proccess
I get thoses :
./configure: /root/tmp/cNf25006.com: No such file or directory
./configure: /root/tmp/cNf25006.hst: No such file or directory
./configure: /root/tmp/cNf25006.tgt: No such file or directory
./configure: /root/tmp/cNf25006.pos: No such file or directory

Don't know what to tell you.  I haven't seen this before.
Comment 5 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-03-03 17:26:49 UTC
Maybe sandbox is enabled ?  Maybe sandbox *and* swap is not mounted, so it
make temp files in wierd places ? *shrug*
Comment 6 Arnaud de Villèle 2002-03-04 03:11:43 UTC
I will look into that

Stay tuned !
Comment 7 Martin Schlemmer (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-03-24 07:52:44 UTC
Just thought about it.  libtool use a tmpdir to create files for its tests ..
It is just possible that it sets $TMPDIR, and because the chroot do not
have a /root/tmp, things fails


Maybe try the following after chroot and before bootstrap:

# unset TMPDIR

Any new developments/comments ?
Comment 9 Arnaud de Villèle 2002-05-28 03:19:46 UTC
well the swapp space was not used,
it works now.
