1 Hi,
2
3 I have built a 'secondary' GenToo system on a separate partition. (This
4 system contains far less packages and uses only CFLAGS for the older
5 hardware of my wife's laptop).
6 Until now I've always chrooted into that folder; there I've updated
7 Gentoo regularly.
8
9 But now, don't ask me why,
10 chroot /OtherGentoo /bin/bash
11 dies of a segment fault.
12
13 Is there any means to repair such a Gentoo system short of rebuilding
14 it (nearly) from scratch?
15
16 Can one use Gentoo's prefix feature?
17
18 Many thanks for a hint,
19 Helmut
