That's *EXACTLY* what I was trying to do (32-bit install). Let's just |
11 |
say that I ran into various breakages. It refuses to build with the |
12 |
default make.conf. |

It wants me to change USE flags, keyword and unmask some packages, |
15 |
etc. The net result is that it ends up trying to build almost 60 |
16 |
packages... and dying in the process, as mentioned in the comments of |
17 |
step 5. |
