26 ^ I posted what was in the logs...
27
28 I also noticed a few minutes ago, that I am unable to sync the portage
29 tree..
30
31 I get many 'Permission Denied' errors for several subdirs in
32 /usr/portage/dev-perl
33
34 trying to 'ls' those directories shows more 'Permission Denied' errors,
35 for example:
36
37 hardcore dev-perl # ls -l /usr/portage/dev-perl/SOAP/
38 ls: /usr/portage/dev-perl/SOAP/files: Permission denied
39 ls: /usr/portage/dev-perl/SOAP/SOAP-0.28-r1.ebuild: Permission denied
40 ls: /usr/portage/dev-perl/SOAP/ChangeLog: Permission denied
41 ls: /usr/portage/dev-perl/SOAP/metadata.xml: Permission denied
42 ls: /usr/portage/dev-perl/SOAP/SOAP-0.28-r2.ebuild: Permission denied
43 total 17
44 drwxr-xr-x 3 root root 240 Oct 14 2003 .
45 drwxr-xr-x 404 root root 12720 May 28 08:19 ..
46 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 360 Oct 14 2003 Manifest

48 anyone else think this might be signs of hard drive failure? or is this
49 something else?
50
51 Don't know if it matters, but my /usr/portage is on a seperate partition:
52
53 /dev/hda9 on /usr/portage type reiserfs (rw,nosuid,nodev,noatime,notail)
54
55 Thanks again
