This is in the current base layout, its happening on every single computer I've recently 'emerge -UD world'ed. I've got no idea how to fix it.

It just started happening out of nowhere. I did emerge world a couple days ago. The errors happen right after logging in as a user. Logging in as root I don't get any errors. These are all the errors I'm getting:

apologies for the multiple posts - net problems made me think it hadn't been submited - so I kept trying again...

Edit: I believe this may be a related problem - I cannot know mount my floppy drive - /dev/fd0 does not exist anymore.

I recently reinstalled gentoo on my computer and the only difference with previous installs are:

1) enabled joliet CD in my kernel

2) used a preformated /home partition (created in another distro)

Everything else is the same
