Ready made stage3 Gentoo Package?

[brfsa]

I have been trying to run the bootstrap instructions on http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/gentoo-al ... -macos.xml
but I had few errors.

Could someone share a bootstrapped ready gentoo tarball?
a tar file with the $EPREFIX/gentoo folder and share it with us ??

I love gentoo so much. would be great to have it on my mac too.


Thanks everyone.

Because I am so sick of macports...

What kind of error do you have?
(Presuming I just set a fresh prefix up with that guide; copy&paste)

[brfsa]

The errors that i was getting were:

1. the findutils wont compile. I believe it has to be some of my macport binaries that are incompatible with the build process.

2. the first emerge command.: "emerge --oneshot sed" it will not run.


I will try again now from scratch but without macports in the PATH.

Originally PATH was set to:

/opt/gentoo/usr/bin:/opt/gentoo/bin:/opt/gentoo/tmp/usr/bin:/opt/gentoo/tmp/bin:/opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/bin:/opt/local/bin:/opt/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/X11/bin


now I set it to:
/opt/gentoo/usr/bin:/opt/gentoo/bin:/opt/gentoo/tmp/usr/bin:/opt/gentoo/tmp/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin



Lets see how it goes

here is the error I get with findutils:

I managed to get bootstrap findutils3 instead of findutils

but still same error when I run emerge:

fred@mbp /opt/gentoo $ emerge --info

Anyone have any idea?

Thanks!

anyone still would like to share their gentoo install on OSX?
I use leopard 10.5

You hit some annoying bugs. Latest Portage and bootstrap script should solve them all.

[BobbyJ]

I've run into the same bug, even with the latest bootstrap script and portage.
