Maybe you could try the ut2004-3270.ebuild

If that doesn't work and you're really desperate to play and don't mind skipping portage, the installer on the dvd works fine. You'll just have to patch it up manually afterwards.

ok, i'll try it

but dont you think it is a problem with free space?

Code:
/ 2.4GB free
/usr 4.1GB free
/opt 1.6GB free
/home 39.8GB free


at the beginning of emerge he tells me that the install takes about 6.8GB.

but on which partition i need 6.8GB?

in ut2004-3236-r1.ebuild i changed

Code:
dir=${GAMES_PREFIX_OPT}/${PN}
Ddir=${D}/${dir}


to

Code:
dir=/home/games/${PN}
Ddir=${D}/${dir}


like Malakai described in his post because on /home partition i have enough free space!

I had a 5GB /var partition, and UT2k4 was failing on install because it ran out of space there, so if your root is only 2.4GB, it might be doing the same thing.

i tried the ut2004-3270.ebuild and get exactly the same error!

where does it install the 6.8GB if i use the installer on the dvd? i dont want to skip portage / patch it up manually.

i think my problem is that i dont have enough free space on /usr or /root or /opt?

Code:
./root/
./root/.loki/
./root/.loki/installed/
./root/.loki/installed/ut2004.xml
tbz2tool: bin.tar.bz2 doesn't exist

please tell me how to install it on /home!

Since the error is probably because portage is running out of space in its temp dir when unpacking the files (in /var/tmp), you could change
Code:
PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/var/tmp"
to a location that has enough space (7GB) to unpack the files, when doing the emerge.

Maybe use the command
Code:
PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/home/user/tmp/" CD_ROOT="/path/to/cd" emerge ut2004


And also edit the ebuild to install into another location, as potatoface mentioned in his post, if /opt doesn't have enough space.

hi,

i've already changed to

Code:
PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/home/tmp"


when i installed gentoo and

i've already edited the ebuild to

Code:
dir=/home/games/${PN}
Ddir=${D}/${dir}


the problem isnt because portage is running out of space in its temp dir when unpacking the files because my temp dir has enough free spache --> /home 39.8GB free.

it fails after compiling i think when copying the tbz2 to /usr/portage/packages/All?
the free space on /usr 4.1GB free.

here is the problem

Code:

./root/
./root/.loki/
./root/.loki/installed/
./root/.loki/installed/ut2004.xml
tbz2tool: bin.tar.bz2 doesn't exist
mv: cannot stat `ut2004-3236-r1.tbz2': No such file or directory

!!! ERROR: games-fps/ut2004-3236-r1 failed.
!!! Function dyn_package, Line 765, Exitcode 1
!!! Failed to move tbz2 to /usr/portage/packages/All


as i told you before i have exactly the same problem with ut2004-3270.ebuild.

if the problem is my /usr/portage dir can i make a symlink to a dir on my /home partition where is enough space for all that portage stuff?

:?

ps. one information for y0zza: the guy who has the problem is me, potatoface!!!

Looks like it fails packaging the build. Do you have "buildpackage" in features?

That is the problem if you are trying to emerge UT2004.
your / partition has 2.4Gig of space.

When you start to emerge something it will do a virual install to /var/tmp/portage/PRODUCT NAME.

since you do not have /var as a sepate partition it is part of /

Also UT2004 installs to /opt. So although it states you need 6.8gig (or so) to install in fact you need 13.6gig (6.8gig for the virtual install in /var and then another 6.8gig as emerge copies the files to /opt/ut2004

Since you do not ha ve a partition for /opt it to will be part of / (which is only 2.4gig)

The only way to install is to use the install script from the DVD/CD and install the a partition that has the room eg /home

this is found at http://www.thehaus.net/Tips/UT/ut2004icculusfaq.shtml

Q: How do I install the patch?
A: It's pretty easy. Just use these commands:

tar xfvj ut2004-lnxpatch3323.tar.bz2
cd UT2004-Patch
cp * -R /where/i/installed/ut2004

Obviously, replace /where/i/installed with the actual path to your UT2K4 installation. After that you should be good to go!

I think the best bet would be the following:

FEATURES="-buildpkg" PORTAGE_TMPDIR="/home/tmp" GAMES_PREFIX_OPT="/home/games" CD_ROOT="/path/to/cdrom" emerge -v ut2004

hey there,

I have latest version of UT in and the best way to install is to mout the disc and then run the install off the dvd. Then despite all given advice the install takes up 6gig of space so stick it in your home area! This will mean that you have space for it's install plus provides with (if you have set this up) backups of the install.

Anyway the patch is just a case of extracting the tar.gz to the UT dir as root, that is a doddle and really if you look in other posts it tells you how and in the UT docs.

=)
