Okay, so I'm starting fresh with my Gentoo install, and as soon as I untar and --sync my Portage snapshot, it tells me to update portage (emerge portage). So I do:

Code:
(chroot) livecd / # emerge portage
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 37) sys-devel/patch-2.5.9 to /

(chroot) livecd / #


But for some reason I don't think that's correct... It never seems to have actually done the install, just unpacked the source. And what happened to the other 36/37 packages? So, I tried an 'emerge -v portage' to see if there's possibly more to be seen, and got:

Code:

And of course the terminal is locked up due to a Kernel panic. Is there anything I can do for this problem?

More Stats: Sparc5 Workstation booted from 2004.1 sparc(32) liveCD, with 2006.0 stage3 tarball and portage snapshot from 20060501.

Now that the above errors are done, I seem to be stabilizing with this error:
Code:
(chroot) livecd / # emerge -v portage
Calculating dependencies ...done!
>>> emerge (1 of 36) sys-libs/zlib-1.2.3 to /
(chroot) livecd / #

I seem to have gotten past the first item in the 37 item list from above, but now it's doing nothing with this install. The system does pause and think for a minute or so after the ">>> emerge" line is on the screen, but eventually gracefully returns to the command prompt.

Some more info that might be useful:

Code:

Well, I did find the one line in the handbook:
Quote:
If you are warned that a new Portage version is available and that you should update Portage, you should ignore it. Portage will be updated for you later on during the installation.

(Emphasis mine) So, maybe I should just ignore it. But in that case, I go on to "emerge sparc-sources", and I get the same hangup; right after ">>> Source unpacked.", it waits for a minute or two, then drops me back to the command line with no other comment, even with a "-v" flag.

Thoughts?

One additional tidbit; I'm doing this action through the serial console, not through standard keyboard/mouse/monitor; would that make a difference?

Well, I learned something today that might explain these weird occurrences with this box; it's the infamous and dreaded 170Mhz model SparcStation 5, which is notorious for not being Linux-friendly. So, I'm downshifting to the other SS5 I have (an 85 Mhz model), and trying that one on for size...

I also took the time to look up the exact specs for the hard drives in this box, since they're not Sun-standard (Seagate Cheetah ST39102LC 9.1GB drives) and don't have the default specs that fdisk comes up with.

also can you post your /etc/make.conf

Sure, I'll post that when I can get at it; as soon as the 85 Mhz box gets weaned off of the livecd (it's compiling its kernel now; went much smoother than the 170 Mhz box), I'll re-launch the 170 Mhz box. I've only got one SCSI hard drive that's new enough to read CD-R media, so can't boot the 170 Mhz box up at the moment until the 85 Mhz one is done with the CD drive.

Here's my Make.conf, hope it helps:

Code:
# These settings were set by the catalyst build script that automatically built this stage
# Please consult /etc/make.conf.example for a more detailed example
CFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"
CHOST="sparc-unknown-linux-gnu"
CXXFLAGS="-O2 -pipe"
MAKEOPTS="-j2"
GENTOO_MIRRORS="ftp://gentoo.chem.wisc.edu/gentoo/ ftp://gentoo.mirrors.pair.com/"
SYNC="rsync://rsync.us.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"

Okay, I'm starting over again, and this time using the new (correct) info on the hard drives I'm using when fdisk-ing the drive, rather than just the defaults. But I get the same problem when I go to 'emerge sparc-sources'. Here's what I got the first time I did the command:

Code:

I tried a third time and got exactly the same thing. I also tried something creative to see if something was being missed into the STDERR output but got the same result:
Code:
(chroot) livecd / # USE="-doc symlink" emerge -v sparc-sources 2>&1

Anyone have any ideas? Is there somewhere else I can look other than STDERR for Portage errors occuring while unpacking the source, or moving on to the next step?
