need libz.so [SOLVED]

I need the 64 bit libz.so.1 fille.
I had a brain meltdown and I deleted it.
My new sata cdrw doesn't boot cds, I don't know if it is my motherboard but that is bad.
The only bootable usb I have is 32 bit and my kernel doesn't run 32bit files.

Go to http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/default ... /sys-libs/ and take your pick, currently zlib-1.2.3-r1.tbz2 and zlib-1.2.5-r2.tbz2 are available. Bear in mind that there is some additional metadata that will not be recognized as part of the archive by tar, it is safe to ignore that particular error message.

I tried http://tinderbox.dev.gentoo.org/default ... .5-r2.tbz2 but I got an ELF32S error.

Don't know why it started working, must have cached something old.

use the tools sometimes, you might have just lost time for a missing link !

Code: Select all

equery b libz.so.1
 * Searching for libz.so.1 ... 
sys-libs/zlib-1.2.5-r2 (/lib/libz.so.1 -> libz.so.1.2.5)
