hi all

I am trying to install gentoo on my tf700t.i am using this guide: http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Asus_Transformer_Infinity_%28TF700T%29/Install
.I am at the chroot and dont fully understand this:"remount with bind dev, proc, run, sys: for i in dev proc run sys; do mount -o bind /$i $i; done" .I did not find run and when i have made an other gentoo install i used:

livecd usr # cd /
livecd / # mount -t proc proc /mnt/gentoo/proc
livecd / # mount --rbind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
livecd / # mount --rbind /sys /mnt/gentoo/sys
livecd / # cp -L /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/
livecd / # chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
livecd / # source /etc/profile

After i chrooted i hade an other problem.i did not have any command....

hedmo,

/run is the new /var/run, its in tmpfs.
This allows for some writeable space before root is remounted rw.

If you don't have it you probobly don't need it.

hedmo,

Not even any error messages?
If bash won't start when you chroot, it should say something.

Does busybox work?
Try
Code:
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/busybox

hedmo,

Your PATH is not set.

What does export $PATH tell?
As a nrmal user, I get
Code:
$ export $PATH
bash: export: `/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/opt/bin:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/gcc-bin/4.9.2:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/armv6j-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gcc-bin/4.8.4:/usr/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu/armv7a-hardfloat-linux-gnueabi/gcc-bin/4.8.4:/usr/games/bin:/usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise/scripts:/usr/portage/local/layman/sunrise/scripts': not a valid identifier

i did not try it but i manage to get some where with some commands:

/bin/passwd to get a new password and /bin/su to get to root.
after that i could emerge and stuff.but i got my self a new problem.i can emerge --sync but i can not emerge stuff and the error is something about
fetshing from distfiles or to distfiles.one step forward and more to go.
