wow your right, I can't even do a "touch"!

That seems drastic, how might that have happened? when I started, I did
an emerge -auvDN system, and had to unmerge pam-login because it was
blocking many things. now I don't want to log out or reboot because I
will not be able to get back in!

Is there a way I can remount or fix this without logging out or
re-booting?

I started a new thread called "emerge broken after update gcc" 

Thanks
