Did a similar same thing about two weeks ago. |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
but found it better to copy the world file, make.conf |
| 17 |
and /etc/portage/package.keywords (if you have it) file, and the entire /etc |
| 18 |
dir to some other place, then install from stage three, put package.keywords |
| 19 |
and make.conf in place and do |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
cat /someplace/world | xargs emerge -avD |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
then get a beer, chips and a movie (unless you have some insane SMP system). |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
after that copy over everything you need from your old /etc. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
and there you are. |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
worked like a charm. |
