I get the message: "I can't access a Mandrake Linux Installation disc in your CDROM drive (TOSHIBA CD-ROM XM-1902B)" The last time I used the disked about a month ago it installed just fine. What factors would keep it from installing this time? *Right now I have no OS installed. I would HATE to have to go back to w2k. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks -nu2linux

I'm tring to install Gentoo. So far I've gotten the latest set of portages, bootstraped, chroot to /mnt/gentoo, updated the environment var., I got to the point where I install the kernel source. I typed in: Code: emerge --usepkg vanilla-sources There are lines before this, but they're the usual environment checks. every thing else was ok.The installation stops when it gets to this point: Code: configure: error: /bin/sh './configure' failed for autoconfig-lib-link!!! ERROR: sys-devel/gettext-0.12.1 failed.!!! ERROR: Function econf, Line 324 Exitcode 1!!! econf failed How can i fix this? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Nu2Linux

Thanks, but I still got the same....well actually i noticed it said some thing like: Code: /usr/sbin/ebuild.sh line 108 /dev/stdout: No such directory I checked and /dev/stdout is a link to fd1 (whatever that is). step 2??
