fs/kernel issue. Don't spose you're running xfs + 2.6.17? As Brian said, nothing we can do about this. No, I'm not using XFS, only ext2&3. My kernel is 2.6.16-gentoo-r12. Do you know what kind of kernel issue this is? Is it gentoo kernel specific? Which 2.6.x kernels are known to work? Any help on this appreciated! (In reply to comment #0) > IOError: [Errno 5] Input/output error Generally, that indicates filesystem and/or disk trouble. You should run some basic diagnostic tools on the filesystem and disk that hold /usr/portage. e2fsck and badblocks from e2fsprogs, for example. |
