 Posted: Sat Aug 10, 2013 9:55 am Post subject: Get permission denied with emerge after chroot |
 |
|
I'm working through the install, using hardened sources on an AMD64 machine. I've just used chroot to move into the new environment but when I try either the emerge-webrsync or the emerge --sync commands I get permission denied, and sudo su gets the same response.
What could be causing such an outcome? |

linuxuser,
Welcome to Gentoo.
Run If FEATURES includes the portage will used the portage user for fetching and building wherever it can. This means that /usr/portage/* needs to be writable by the portage user, but that should just work.
Try as root | Code: | | FEATURES="-userfetch -userpriv" emerge --sync |
this makes emerge pun as root, which should not be required.
Which stage3 file did you use?
What does | Code: | | eselect profile list |
show the * against ?

Hi, thank you for your response.
I have since re-done the installation and have not recieved this error, I had to re-run earlier steps a few times, as my computer crashed periodically due to overheating, I guess I missed a step. Letting the machine cool and being able to complete the steps in one go has avoided the same problem repeating. |
