| ralpho | sure it will work |
| xinming | [R]: download stage3 tar ball. and then, try emerge --sync && emerge -uDN world, There are many packages need to be updated. [R]: that takes lots of time. |
| Draconx|Laptop | schmirgo, you could configure udev to do so when it creates said device nodes. |
| [R] | xinming: then get a better computer? |
| xinming | If we use 2007.0, There won't be much updates. |
| [R] | right... |
| Green_Lord | so many names |
| [R] | the amount of large packages in the base systme isn't htat big glibc and gcc |
| Green_Lord | 935 whistle.... |
| schmirgo | Draconx|Laptop, ok thanks, i'm going to read a tutorial about udev then... ;) |
| larrythecow | Draconx|Laptop: Well I have two isos, an mdf and an mds. I got mdf2iso. Now I need to burn these to one disk. My plan was to make a cue file and then use it with k3b, turning mdf to iso. Not sure what I'll do with mds but am I on the right track? |
| Draconx|Laptop | xinming, hold off your world update until before bedtime, then. |
| [R] | larrythecow: mdf and mds go together... like bread and butter |
| xinming | [R]: barton 2500+ + Laptop with p4-m, takes 5 hours to install all updates. |
| action | Green_Lord feels confused and isolated..... |
| Green_Lord | feels confused and isolated..... |
| [R] | larrythecow: mdf2iso is what you want xinming: thats nothing |
| Po0ky | can you get all packages that were merged with ebuilds from a specified overlay? |
| xinming | Draconx|Laptop: that's what I've done. But... |
| [R] | Po0ky: like get a list? |
| action | Green_Lord wonders whether 5 conversations are happening |
| Green_Lord | wonders whether 5 conversations are happening |
| Po0ky | yeah I need to clean up, get rid of overlays I don't use anymore |
| larrythecow | [R] so I mdf2iso <mdf> then mdf2iso <mds> and then make a cue sheet and burn with k3b and all should be well? |
| Draconx|Laptop | xinming, the only machine I have that can't upgrade the base system in one night's sleep is my pentium 120. |
| xinming | Draconx|Laptop: well, I think I'm wrong anyway. At least, Gentoo is not a install && use distribution. ;-) |
| RiverRat | Green_Lord: Yeah, it's a slow night. |
| Green_Lord | mm |
| [R] | Po0ky: if you get rid of the overlay and do -pvuDN world portage will probably complain if the overlay is in use |
| Green_Lord | it's scary in here..... |
| xinming | Draconx|Laptop: Oh.... pretty good machine... ;-) |
| [R] | larrythecow: no, you read the documentation that tells you how to use the program |
| Po0ky | I'll start of with disabling it first :) |
| reisio | [R]: --depclean is the traditional (but not completely unquirky) option |
| RiverRat | Green_Lord: If you have a question just ask. |
| Green_Lord | larrythecow is my friend, is he asking about dark-oberon? |
| [R] | reisio: but if its in the world file... |
