Re: [gentoo-user] VPS has issues emerging everything

[Simon]

Ok, was just doing a "fsck.ext3 -c -c -C 1 /dev/xvda" from within a
rescue OS provided by my VPS provider...  and it froze at the middle
of it!!!

So I guess Gentoo is not responsible after all...  I've opened a
support ticket with them...  I'll let you know how it turns out.
