 Posted: Tue Oct 31, 2006 1:37 pm Post subject: Cannot Download hppa-sources kernel |
 |
|
I am attempting to install Gentoo onto a Visualize C3700 system and am at the point in the installation where I download the kernel.
I have tried repeatedly to run the emerge hppa-sources command, but everytime I go to the website to download the file, I get a
404 Not Found error message. I cannot continue with the installation until this is resolved. Also, if I cannot get this resolved within
the next few days, I will be forced to abandon this project. If someone can help, it would be greatly appreciated. |

Try using another mirror by adding a line to your /etc/make.conf :
| Code: | | GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://your-favorite-mirror" |
See the Gentoo Mirrors list for all available mirrors. |

| I've added a GENTOO_MIRROR line to the /etc/make.conf file, but when I ran emerge again, it referenced only the original sites, and not the new one. Is there something else I need to do after I modify the file? |

It would help us help you if you mentioned which files are missing, which servers you try to connect to and which version of hppa-sources you are trying to emerge. | Code: | GENTOO_MIRRORS="" ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="hppa" emerge -vpf hppa-sources|awk '/tp:\/\//{printf "wget -q %s\n",$1}'
wget -q http://ftp.parisc-linux.org/cvs/linux-2.6/patch-2.6.17-pa6.gz
wget -q http://www.at.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/patch-2.6.17.10.bz2
wget -q http://www.us.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.17.tar.bz2
wget -q ftp://ftp.oregonstate.edu/pub/gentoo/distfiles/4300_squashfs-3.0.patch.bz2 |
All files were downloaded when piping into bash. Setting GENTOO_MIRRORS to "" and using $1 in awk means all files were found on the first default mirror of each file.

The file that appears to be missing is the squashfs file. Also, I added the lines that were mentioned in the reply to the /etc/make.conf file. When I tried to run the emerge command again, I got the following errors:
Invalid token (not "=") -vpf
Parse Error: Invalid token (not '='): /etc/make.conf line 6 in /etc/make.conf
Incorrect multiline literals can cause this. Do not use them. |

| Can you post the contents of your /etc/make.conf file? |

Yeah, that's what i thought. neysx was trying to demonstrate how to emerge it from the command line. Not to give you the line that you should put into make.conf
Why don't you remove everything after the line containing:
| Code: | | CXXFLAGS="-02 -pipe" |
I think hppa-sources doesn't really matter with the GENTOO_MIRRORS variable, as it will simply download the files from kernel.org. |

| I removed the files after the CXXFLAGS line and I'm back to where I was at the beginning of this issue. I am having problems downloading the squashfs file. I can try adding other mirrors, but when I did that the first time, they were not referenced when I ran the emerge command. |

I had the same problem, it seemed to be caused by the /etc/profile.env file. in my case it had entries like
| Code: | | export AMANDA_PORTS_BOTH='''' |
(note the 4 single quotes instead of two)
No idea what caused this but running env-update should solve it, otherwise you could edit /etc/profile.env by hand (not recommended!) |
