|
I tried to emerge xfree and it wouldn't compile, and now I get an error when I try and emerge anything.
I ran "emerge sync" to see if that would fix anything and got this message after it downloaded the portage tree.

and when I try to "emerge nvidia-kernel" I get...

I tried to emerge another package and I get the same message as for nvidia-kernel.
I installed using the stage 3 G4 1.4_rc3 tarball on a G4 iMac if that is of any help.
I would also like to know if there is any known reason that on all three attempts at installing Gentoo (different versions each time) xfree would not compile on my imac. I am new to 'ppc linux'. |

Thanks a lot! 
It seems portage had filled up /var. So I have it using /usr for it's tmp folder now.
I didn't expect it to fill /var up for some reason. Guess I know better now. |
