1 Hello all,
2 I have been having terrible trouble ever since my system crashed at the
3 end of last month. It turned out that it was the sata controller on the
4 motherboard, but I only realised this after many fsck correcting errors.
5 Anyway got a new motherboard and took the opportunity to upgrade to athlon
6 64 x2 and opposed to the single core amd 64 I originally had.
7 By this time the original boot disk was full of errors so I tried to start
8 from scratch with a live cd 2007.0 but it wouldn't work, I then tried a
9 minimal install and that wouldn't work properly as well. In the end I
10 booted with a minimal install 2006.
11 When this was completed and a stage 3 installed I was able to restore from
12 my external usb disk using rsync.
13 This seems to have worked OK and I can now boot with no errors and log
14 into kde its as if my system is back to where it was before the crash.
15
16 Sorry that was a bit long winded - now to my current problem.
17
18 I have updated portage and have tried a to update world but every install
19 errors, one of which is :-
20
21 * Building failed for ABI=x86!. This usually means a broken
22 * multilib setup.
23 Another is:-
24
25 /usr/include/gentoo-multilib/amd64/bits/string2.h:969: error:
26 expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘size_t’
27 /usr/include/gentoo-multilib/amd64/bits/string2.h:970: error:
28 expected ‘=’, ‘,’, ‘;’, ‘asm’ or ‘__attribute__’ before ‘size_t’
29
30 So it seems that my system has a problem with multilib.
31
32 I can't find any documentation in the handbook to explain how I can fix
33 this.
34 Can anybody help please.
35 below is my emerge --info
