Hello |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I attempted to install gentoo on my system last night and I hit a snag. I |
| 4 |
used the minimal build ISO, and everything went well right up until I ran |
| 5 |
the command 'emerge rsync' after chrooting over to the build installation. |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
The problem is that emerge at first seemed to hang, then I got the |
| 8 |
message: eth0: Too much work (or something to that effect). After a |
| 9 |
while emerge finally quit with the message 'cvs.gentoo.org not found'. So, |
| 10 |
I rebooted and went through the install process again, but this time after |
| 11 |
I had set up the networking I tried pinging a few machines, which worked, |
| 12 |
but when I pinged cvs.gentoo.org I got the IP address of my |
| 13 |
firewall/gateway (192.168.1.1). |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Could anyone give me a clue to what I'm doing wrong? To my knowledge I |
| 16 |
have followed the exact installation instructions, and there shouldn't be |
| 17 |
any problems with my hardware setup since it works fine with Slackware and |
| 18 |
kernel 2.4.2. The ethernet card uses the epic100 module. |
| 19 |
|

Any help at all would be appriciated. |
