Subject: [gentoo-alt] bootstrap-prefix.sh -- how to properly resume "emerge -e system"

1 On a couple of x86_64 Linux boxes, including a Gentoo instance,
2 everything seemed to be going
3 fine until some package bombs out towards the end during "emerge -e
4 system". Restarting the script wants to re-emerge all 92 packages from
5 the start, even though you might have 84 of them already installed.
6 Would it make sense to build binpkgs here btw and make the script do
7 "emerge -ek system" instead?
8
9 Anyway, what's the sensible action here? I don't want it to start
10 rebuilding a hundred packages when only last 6 might be missing..
