I am following this tutorial atm
http://www.howtoforge.com/perfect_server_gentoo_2007.0
and I am getting this error when I type
genkernel all
| Code: |
~ # genkernel all
* Gentoo Linux Genkernel; Version 3.4.24_p1
* Running with options: all
* ERROR: Kernel Makefile (/usr/src/linux/Makefile) missing. Maybe re-install the kernel sources.

LiThiuME3, Welcome to Gentoo.
I glanced at that tutorial and it seems mostly okay, but beware: it's 5 years out of date. The network configuration file syntax has changed. I'd follow the Gentoo Handbook when I got to that part. I noticed one other issue early in the document (didn't read it all). Take away is, expect problems. Ask good questions and you'll get good help here, though.
jburns is asking the right questions to get you on track.

Was this emerge successful? Maybe you are running out of disk space or inodes or there is some other problem. _________________ Please learn how to denote units correctly! |
