So you are welcome to blame me, if you have any suggestion how to fix this would be great anyway.
*** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 133209 ***
looks like you didn't enable IA32 emulation in your kernel config, which you absolutely should. See http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/gentoo-amd64-faq.xml#kernel
The bug you found as a duplicate and the suggestions therein worked for me. Thanks a lot. I don't know why I didn't find that one when i was searching bugzilla before posting. I really did! :-) Well just for your information: I do have ia32emulation in my kernel. Actually I have no problems with executing 32bit binaries. Whethere it is mplayer-bin, firefox-bin or a game like quake4. I just today tried to switch my CFLAGS to the ones which now are suggested in the gentoo amd64 document you linked. And the emerge -e world stopped because of said sandbox error. Actually all the other ebuild worked fine. I even recompiled ggc and glibc with the new CFLAGS already. Just in case... logon linux # cat /usr/src/linux-2.6.18-gentoo-r4/.config |grep IA32 CONFIG_IA32_EMULATION=y CONFIG_IA32_AOUT=y Thanks a lot again for helping me.
