Created attachment 73725 [details] genkernel log from failed kernel build It looks like some kind of issue with a wireless module. I'm not sure how to fix this in the context of catalyst -- is there some translation table for building the spec file?
Created attachment 73726 [details] log of whole "catalyst -f livecd-stage2_template.spec" run
Created attachment 73727 [details] spec file for the attempted build
OK.... so genkernel failed because of a problem that is completely unrelated to catalyst (or genkernel for that matter). The error message for your build was exactly this (line 81627): Your kernel source contains an incompatible version of the ieee80211 subsystem, which needs to be removed before ieee80211-1.1.6 can be installed. This can be accomplished by running: # /bin/sh /usr/portage/net-wireless/ieee80211/files/remove-old /usr/src/linux Please note that this will make it impossible to use some of the in-kernel IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN drivers (eg. orinoco). Your error is due to your configuration. My suggestion is to update your snapshot to something recent and use the in-kernel ipw2100 and ipw2200 drivers in the current stable 2.6.14 kernel series, rather than the external drivers.

The snapshot is 20051126 and the kernel is 2.6.14 right out of gentoo-sources-2.6.14-r2. If I de-configure the driver it's complaining about and configure the ipw2100/2200 drivers in the kernel config file, will this go away, or do I have to perform the recommended action on the gentoo-sources before I do that?
Remove ipw2100 and ipw2200 from your specs completely and use the in-kernel versions. (Please keep discussions to the appropriate places, this is a bug tracking facility, not a web forum)
