|
|
emerge has completely hung (i.e. said it was performing some simple step for more than 3 hours while doing anything, not accepting ^C, etc.) twice for me now during the installation: once during 'emerge system' and a second time during 'emerge kde'. In both cases the hard-drive light has been stuck ON (though audibly nothing was happening).
The first time this occured while compiling fddb.o for net-utils (i'm pretty sure that was the name). The second time it was while unpacking the RPM ebuild.
i'm using hdparm -d 1 on the relevant drive (that's turned off now to check), and have been compiling with -O3 -march=i686 (i.e. i uncommented the machine specific section in /etc/make.config).
other than this and an error during bootstrap (right at the end!) that for no good reason didn't happen the second time, it's been a painless install; just wondering if anyone could help out with this prob. |

Sounds like a hardware related freeze, compiling is a very CPU intensive process and you could be experiencing overheating that is resulting in this freeze. What kind of cooling are you using? It could really be any type of hardware freeze though (PSU problem, RAM issues, etc). I would personally first look at a possible CPU overheating problem. Check out the forums there have been others with the same general problem that were solved with heat solutions. I'll see if I can find one for ya . . .

Here is another thread, this one didn't turn out to be heat.
