Description Matt Hargett 2004-05-05 12:46:40 UTC 
When I try to emerge ati-drivers on the 2004.1 x86 Universal LiveCD,
it fails on app-arch/cabextract-0.6 which does not appear to be on the CD.
I am not connected to a network because the gentoo install doesn't detect and/or have drivers for the Dell TrueMobile 1300 in my laptop. I shouldn't need a network to emerge this common package anyways, I don't think.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. go through install for x86 universal liveCD without a network connection
2. after building the kernel, emerge ati-drivers


Actual Results:  
A bunch of dependencies are resolved, and dependant packages are built. After 
unzip-5.50-r2 is built, it tries to emerge cabextract-0.6 from the network 
because it is not on the liveCD, and fails.

Expected Results:  
all the dependencies for the common modules (nvidia-drivers, ati-drivers, etc) 
should be on the liveCD if possible to allow for a totally disconnected install.
