Hmm. 404 not found. And yes there is no rc-scripts-1.4.8 at oregonstate. Had a look at another mirror too and it was the same. Atleast i couldn't find it.
The closest version I found was 1.4.9.
Are you using an old LiveCD or something?
Edit:
found it here: http://gentoo.mirror.at.stealer.net/distfiles/rc-scripts-1.4.8.tar.bz2 _________________ Life, loathe it or ignore it, you can't like it. |

You are aware that the distfiles dir is, well, quite large to say the least
Try and put http://gentoo.mirror.at.stealer.net/ in your mirror list in make.conf.
Or you could do this:
Code: | cd /usr/portage/distfiles
wget http://gentoo.mirror.at.stealer.net/distfiles/rc-scripts-1.4.8.tar.bz2
cd ../ | and then continue with the boostrap. _________________ Life, loathe it or ignore it, you can't like it. |

prior to doing the bootstrap. HTH _________________ Over and out,

install continues (2004.1) shot self in foot, (accidentally opened stage 2 tarball over successful install - bugger) install goes well until `chroot' at which point nameserver wanders off somewhere. I am attempting a stage 1 this time (masochist) and have followed the instructions. when I reach `bootstrap.sh' the response is a series of attempted downloads, each followed by `... host not found'. It worked the first time, what am I doing wrong this time... yes I have checked resolv.conf (repeatedly) _________________ you mean that everyone can SEE THIS? |

did you run
Code: | mirrorselect -a -s4 -o | grep -ve '^Netselect' >> /mnt/gentoo/etc/make.conf |
prior to running bootstrap.sh?
this updated my make.conf with the fastest mirrors(i think they r the fastest) after probing 148 servers - also verifies the mirrors you will be using are up
there is also an http fetch option - in case your firewall is blocking rsync or ftp or whatever

don't know where the styles bit came from... Yes I did that (I read the latest FM ) I'm posting this on another console on the same machine, (hp omnibook 4150 - not `B', with xircom pccard ethernet) so I know net worx, nameserver worx and I did cp -L resolv.conf... which leaves me with a +5 huh?? _________________ you mean that everyone can SEE THIS? |

i was hoping it was a simple omission
so its the same reaction no matter what mirror u choose? and you can ping or otherwise see the same mirrors?
have you tried the bootstrap.sh -f?
do u have a firewall up?
has to be an omission or network config issue- especially if you can resolve ips and hit the internet
(lol at 4150 - thats what hp gave me as my workstation back in 2001 a 500mhz i think or 450 p3 - i have a semi-new docking station if u want it u pay the shipping its yours free - im in the usa)
dang- im glad im not u- im doing a stage 1 for the second time in 1.5years- (1st time made me a slackware user) just emerged system this damn thing better be fast when im done _________________ Linux 0mega 2.6.8.1-cko8

I redid everything yesterday, took almost the entire day to finish it. Actually it took the entire day.
What i did this time was to use everything from the net and not anything from the cd.
I also used a stage2 instead of the stage1.
I have the basic system up and running and now i am reading the XFree86 tutorial on http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/edu/os-dw-linuxxwin-i.html
I hope to get X running today
Its a lot of work but i think that in the end it will be worth it
I will remember that thing about doing a emerge sync next time i use a stage 1 before doing the bootstrap.
Thanks for all the help for now. |

fscking headings that can't be changed SUCK!!! Do not think that i am unappreciative of any help. in LiveCD environment all is cool, in`chrooted' environment, it appears that dns doesn't work. /etc/resolv.conf is correct eth0 works from non-chrooted con (I'm posting this from it) it seems to be the env that is at fault. I know I've done something stupid, I've just missed it _________________ you mean that everyone can SEE THIS? |

I think they refer to that in the manual

Copy DNS Info
One thing still remains to be done before we enter the new environment and that is copying over the DNS information in /etc/resolv.conf. You need to do this to ensure that networking still works even after entering the new environment. /etc/resolv.conf contains the nameservers for your network.

Thanks to all who tried to advise me!
There is no `E' in resolv.conf (goes to stand in corner for two days) _________________ you mean that everyone can SEE THIS? |

Make sure when starting from stage 1 to run net-setup eth0. After doing so and before executing chroot don't forget
Code: |
cp /etc/resolv.conf /mnt/gentoo/etc/resolv.conf
|
I also recommend
Code: |
emerge sync
emerge mirrorselect
mirrorselect -a -s3
|

I had this same problem and this thread helped me -- solved the issue almost immediately. I'm using 2004.1 LiveCD. Thank You!!
Somewhat related: why don't all sites have rc-scripts-1.4.8.tar.bz2? Perhaps I'm being a little dreamy to wish all sites had everything, but part of the reason I'm trying out Gentoo is because of the vast array of complete mirrors [or maybe this is a mis-interpretation]... but none of the mirrors selected by my "mirrorselect" had this file, which was a temporary show-stopper. |
