 Posted: Fri Mar 31, 2017 2:22 pm Post subject: [Solved] emerge: Failed to validate a sane '/dev'. |
 |
|
Trying to install Gentoo on a Intel64 notebook, and running into an issue that I can't figure out. Using the amd64 guide and a Ubuntu livecd, I can't use portage after chrooting. The code:
emerge --sync
| Code: | Failed to validate a sane '/dev'.
bash process substitution doesn't work; this may be an indication of a broken '/dev/fd'.
|
I've never had a problem before, and can't find an answer on the Internet about this. I haven't deviated from what I normally do, so idk why it's giving this error. make.conf listed below.
make.conf
| Code: | CFLAGS="-march=native -O2 -pipe"
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"
# WARNING: Changing your CHOST is not something that should be done lightly.
# Please consult http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/change-chost.xml before changing.
CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu"
# These are the USE and USE_EXPAND flags that were used for
# buidling in addition to what is provided by the profile.
USE="bindist"
CPU_FLAGS_X86="mmx sse sse2"
PORTDIR="/usr/portage"
DISTDIR="${PORTDIR}/distfiles"
PKGDIR="${PORTDIR}/packages"
MAKEOPTS="-j3"

Gankfest,
You forgot to bind mount /dev inside the chroot, so inside the chroot, its empty.
The same handbook section covers /proc and /sys

Whats the syntax for that, I'm not seeing it the handbook under mounting:
| Code: | root #mount -t proc /proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
root #mount --rbind /sys /mnt/gentoo/sys
root #mount --make-rslave /mnt/gentoo/sys
root #mount --rbind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
root #mount --make-rslave /mnt/gentoo/dev |

Need a cup of coffee?  |
I did that, but the error still exists.
Edit:
I'll take that cup of coffee lol
It should of been just:
| Code: |
mount -t proc /proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev |
ok now emerge --sync is showing:
| Code: | >>> Syncing repository 'gentoo' into '/usr/portage'...
!!! getaddrinfo failed for 'rsync.gentoo.org': [Errno -3] Temporary failure in name resolution
>>> Starting rsync with rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage...
rsync: getaddrinfo: rsync.gentoo.org 873: Temporary failure in name resolution
rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c(125) [Receiver=3.1.2]
>>> Retrying...
!!! Exhausted addresses for rsync.gentoo.org
|
and I can't select a profile with eselect failed to get a list of valid profiles and ls says the make.profile is non existent.

You`ll prob need to copy /etc/resolv.conf into the chroot as a temp dns fix,
and if /usr/portage is completely empty then you wont be able to set a profile yet,
as what that does is create a symlink to a profile in /usr/portage/profiles/.

that solved the issue, portage is working as intended.
Thanx!

Here's another update to this. I had to run env-update to get this error to go away. I use a script to mount the needed things and it worked for a long time until today. Running env-update somehow fixed it. Just posting in case this may help someone else.
Sorry to revive a somewhat older thread but I thought it fit best here. Hopefully this will help someone else.

| I just hit this because I'm installing with a chroot from a non-Gentoo distribution. The /dev/fd entry is supposed to be a symlink to /proc/self/fd. Creating that symlink fixes it. |
