Hello Dude's and Gals.
I was checking https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=36072&highlight=runscript and have checked https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=25284&highlight=runscript+sh
but still can't manage to solve my runscript problem. :oops:

I get the following errors.
Code:
mounting local filesystems

 6 times  /sbin/runscripts.sh line 1:cut :command not found
 1 time   /sbin/runscripts.sh line 18 : : integer expression expected

updating enviroment
/sbin/rc-envupdate.sh: line 1 :id command not found
/sbin.rc-envupdate.sh : line 10:[: -ne unary operator expected


This is how my fstab looks like

Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

# line to /etc/fstab should take care of this:

#  memory if not populated with files)

tmpfs         /dev/shm   tmpfs      defaults      0 0


Maybe someone could explain to me how to fix this problem.
And please don't tell me i have to install gentoo

Hi I am a n00b so this may be way off bat. Or it might be the solution.

I have seen by reading most of the threads for the last 7 days (I have to do something while the compiles etc happen) I noticed a thread about having /usr /var on the partition (may also have mentioned needing to be in the first for the scripts to be located??

Hope this helps.

Chris.. :wink:

So /usr and /var should be on one partition ...??? :?:

No, they can be on separate partitions if you want.

To take a wild stab at what the problem might be, did you remember to mount those partitions before chrooting and installing the system (under /mnt/gentoo/usr, /mnt/gentoo/var, etc.)? After you logon, are there any files in /usr?

I have been snooping around in my memory and as i recall i had made /mnt/gentoo/usr etc etc before i chrooted into the system...
When i logon my /usr directory contains a local directory but a ls -l in user directory will come up with only local.
could it be grub related..???

Try "umount /usr/local && umount /usr", and then "ls /usr". If that shows up some files, then it means they've been installed in the / partition rather than /usr.

I can't umount then i get an busy error.
But i think i have mad a partition mistake.

Check this out.

I have

hda1 = PRIMARY is NTFS
hda2 = PRIMARY is /boot
hda3 =PRIMARY is swap

hda 5 =LOGICAL is /
hda 6 =LOGICAL is /home
hda 7 =LOGICAL is /usr
hda 8 =LOGICAL is /usr/local
hda 9 =LOGICAL is /opt
hda10=LOGICAL is /var
hda11=LOGICAL is /tmp

So you see my / and /home /usr are all logical drives.
So i think that /home and /usr should be primary drives so that they could be seen or something...
Let me know what you think...

I don't think it should matter that they're logical partitions. Try booting from the livecd, and do
Code:

# mkdir /mnt/gentoo
# mount -t ext3 /dev/hda5 /mnt/gentoo
# ls /mnt/gentoo/usr
# mount -t reiserfs /dev/hda7 /mnt/gentoo/usr
# ls /mnt/gentoo/usr

The first ls should show an empty directory, and the second should have lots of files.

sorry but i started over again , but still confused over this PRIMARY and LOGICAL Thing. :oops:

Was reading this And i also found this over here

But it's not that clear to me at all :?:
Because i'm trying to dual boot.
But can only have 4 PRIMARY partitions.
But if i do make 4 PRIMARY partitions then i can't make any other LOGICAL partitions , because cfdisk then says unused..(hmmmm).
So i was reading that your boot and swap partition should be a PRIMARY :roll: 8O
In my case that leaves me with the choice of having /home /usr on LOGICAL partitions wich is exactly where i'm at now (but is not working).
Some how when i untar my stage file it does not untar correctly.
Strange situation.
But i'm going to make just 3 partitions /boot /home and /usr, and see if it wil work.
