Did you try another mirror? Yes, i tried the following mirrors: 1) http://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/mirrors/gentoo/releases/x86/2005.1/stages/x86/ stage1-x86-2005.1.tar.bz2 2) http://mirrors.sec.informatik.tu-darmstadt.de/gentoo/releases/x86/2005.1/ stages/x86/stage1-x86-2005.1.tar.bz2 without any success. What exactly is the problem you're having? You didn't actually give an error message. Does it fail? Does it just sit there? Can you download the stage tarball by hand? Is your network actually working on the livecd? My Problem is that i can not install gentoo from the live cd "it just sit there". The networking on the live cd is working. I have no error message because the only text i get is that Unpack stage tarball is shown by the installer. I cannot find any help in the install.log. I can download the stage tarball by hand.

On the partition screen, for each partition, select it, click Properties, change "Format:" to "Yes" and hit OK. This will reformat your /boot and / which is right way to do things. Yes that is okay, but i tried to format the partitions but nothing happends. But this is not my problem. I can not understand what is the problem? we need the additional information of the contents of /tmp/compile_output.log please attach it as a file to this bug. Do you have dial-up internet access? How long did you actually give it? While it's downloading the tarball, the installer won't really seem to be doing anything. Once it's downloaded, you'll see the output from extracting it in the installer window. I started yesterday evening the installer and today i get the following error message: Installation failed: Exception received: GLIUtilityError :FATAL: fetch_and_unpack_tarball: Could not fetch http://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/download/gentoo-mirror/releases/x86/2005.1/stages/x86/stage1-x86-2005.1.tar.bz2 Please submit a bug report (after searching to make sure it's not a known issue and verifying you didn't do something stupid) with the contents of /var/log/install.log and /tmp/installprofile.xml install.log: GLI: September 07 2005 11:28:42 - Setting root password.

I tried the following: 1) open a console 2) export http_proxy=http://proxy.home.local:8080 3) wget -r www.web.de -- works wget -r http://linux.rz.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/download/gentoo-mirror/releases/x86/2005.1/stages/x86/stage1-x86-2005.1.tar.bz2 works, i can download the tarball. But why the installer dont use my proxy? Ah, this makes more sense now. The bug you are probably seeing (not using the HTTP proxy) has already been fixed in cvs. Follow the directions at <http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/releng/installer/faq.xml#newerversion> for updating to the latest CVS snapshot and try again. Reopen this bug if it still doesn't work. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 102064 *** Moving to Release Media/Installer. |
