 |
|
Hi, ALL,
I started my re-install last night and immediately hit a problem.
I booted from the LiveCD but unfortunately the network is not working.
Looking at the .config (saved), I see it is using the same driver (sky2), but "ifconfig" does not show any ip address assigned to to enp9s0 and trying to ping 192.168.1.1 says "Network is unreachable".
Any suggestions?
Thank you. |

ONEEYEMAN,
Does running net-setup on the liveCD fix it?

Running "net-setup" didn't do anything.
Will try to find different CD... |

| If the interface exists, net-setup ought to be able to bring it up. Please show what you did, and what was returned. |

Hu,
As you can see below, the interface exist, but net-setup didn't work.
Thank you.

I presume it is a wired interface.
I can try to run wireless, but I need some guidance on how to do that from minimal Gentoo CD.
Thank you. |

ONEEYEMAN,
The identifies it as a Dell something.
dmesg will tell more.
The Gentoo LiveCD has very little WiFi support.

Actually, I can't see anything below. Imgur broke their site a few years ago, and now all it ever shows is a message whining that Javascript is not enabled. It used to work fine without script, and then one day, it didn't. |

You can share a direct image link so the requirement for JavaScript can be avoided.
For example:

Getting text out of Linux is not a problem, anyone who needs help should do it and not make the task harder for helpers.

@Chiitoo,
Thank you for that.
@Buffoon,
I could've typed it, but thought that screenshot is better.
Thank you. |

| If the minimal CD doesn't include wgetpaste or pastebinit, it should. These are not big programs. |

Hi,

Besides - is minimal capable of mounting the FAT partition?
Thank you. |

Did you try assigning an IP manually?
| Code: |
ip addr add 192.168.1.2/24 dev enp9s0
|
assuming your netmask is 255.255.255.0.
If you're on a usual household LAN where the router's IP is 192.168.1.1, you'll also need to set a route:
| Code: |
ip route add default via 192.168.1.1 dev enp9s0
|
Btw, ifconfig has been deprecated some years ago, ip addr is the modern replacement. |

Hi,
So apparently there was a loose cable here in the laptop. I don't know how it happened, but it did.
So sorry. Feel stupid now. 
However, the next thing is:
Doing Handbook (step 2.5 Updating the world set), I get:
| Quote: |
.....
Usual emerge output
.....
Total 126 packages (117 new, 1 in new slot, 8 reinstalls)
* Error: circular dependencies:
(dev-libs/glib-2.66.7:2/2: gentoo, ebuid scheduled for merge) depends on
(dev-lang/python-3.9.2_p1:3.9/3.9:gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
(net-wireless/bluez-5.55:0/3:gentoo, ebuild scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
(dev-libs/glib-2.66.7:2/2: gentoo, ebuid scheduled for merge) (buildtime)
It might be possible to break this cycle
by applying the following change:
-- dev-lang/python-3.9.2_p1 (Change USE: -bluetooth)
Note that this change can be reverted, once the package has been installed.
Note that the dependency graph contains a lot of cycles.
Special changes might be required to resolve all cycles.
Temporarily changing some use flags for all packages might be the better option.
|
I selected IRC plasma profile 17.1.
And this is a regular laptop - no bluetooth.
I will change it and try again, but I am hoping that this is reported since at this point USE flags are not known
to the installer and so it needs to be fixed inside the distribution.
Thank you. |

Maybe there is room for improvement in net-setup. It should say something like "no carrier on any interface" to indicate there isn't physical connection.

ONEEYEMAN: You could try to add to your update command. Then afterwards

Hi,
As I said, it should be fixed in distribution.
Also, another comment:
That command tries to unconditionally install rust and ff.
1. KDE/plasma have its own browser.
2. They have binary packages.
Thank you. |

Hi,
I have a failure when building llvm.
Logs are:
https://dpaste.com/BMRRUS4W7
https://dpaste.com/2SJXWNU5S
And here are the last lines of the build log:
https://dpaste.com/87BYKYWYX
Let me know if you need the full log.
The build log apparently is too big for the wgetpaste to handle.
Any idea how do I fix it?
Thank you.
P.S.:
