Change ACCEPT_KEYWORDS to "~amd64" in /etc/make.conf then |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
emerge -avuND world |

Word of warning: I'm right in the middle of this exact step on |
| 10 |
~x86 as we speak. 500M of downloads is not out of line, and I'm |
| 11 |
running into many missing libs as the process moves along. So |
| 12 |
there's a lot of ^C with "emerge --resume --skipfirst" and |
| 13 |
repeatedly emerging world till everything is done. Then an |
| 14 |
emerge --depclean followed by revdep-rebuild to make sure |
| 15 |
everything is consistent. None of this is unexpected, but I am |
| 16 |
finding it annoying to have my wm freeze then refuse to restart |
| 17 |
until a compile of three is done, then require ldconfig before |
| 18 |
it works again. |

If you use a terminal in X, it's a very good idea to run emerge |
| 21 |
in a screen session. If you lose the terminal, screen keeps the |
| 22 |
emerge going till you can reattach it when you get the terminal |
| 23 |
back. |
