I had exactly the same problem and was not able to download the last stage |
| 17 |
after booting with the livecd. |
| 18 |
The solution I found (because I did not know the /etc/make.conf solution) was |
| 19 |
to give the proxy data like this : |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
links2 -http-proxy "http://blah.com:3128" you_url |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
and when links2 launch, it open a dialog box (in text mode ;-)) to ask you for |
| 24 |
the username and password. |
| 25 |
|
| 26 |
That's the only way I found to download the stages, and now, I LOVE Gentoo ;-) |
