Trying to emerge mol but it keeps failing with the same error even if I change the setting in make.conf file.
| Code: |

I am wondering should I recompile my 2.6.4 kernel with diffferent setting? Any suggestions would help, thanks. |

I was having a similar problem. If you scroll up in your terminal, you will probably find a smoking gun as to exactly what is causing the problem. In my case, kernel module compilation was complaining about being unable to find autoconf.h and a few other header files.
I had started off trying to compile mol on a vanilla 2.6.6 kernel, and it was on this kernel that I had a lot of problems. This was my first ppc install, so I didn't initially realize it, but there are also benh-patched kernels especially for ppc. | Code: | | emerge --search ppc-development-sources |
.
I found that when I switched to the benh-patched kernel, my problems disappeared.
A couple of other things you might check, which seem to be important, are to make sure you have a current .config file in your /usr/src/linux, as mol uses this info during installation. You also might want to try cleaning your kernel source tree by
| Code: | cd /usr/src/linux
cp .config ~/.config-bak
make mrproper
cp ~/.config-bak /usr/src/linux/.config
make oldconfig
USE="fbcon" FEATURES="-userpriv -strict" emerge mol |
This will clean your source tree and re-run your kernel configuration prior to installation. mol seems really dependent on having clean kernel headers.
If you see any more specific info (look for errors after "Entering Linux" comes up during compile), post here and I'll try to help you more. |

Thanks chaumess for your help, I switch to ppc-development-sources 2.6.4 kernel and that fixed the problem. Thank you |

I tryed to do the same but it fails.
| Code: |
tux root # ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge ppc-development-sources

(bold emphasis mine) - I see a serious problem here 
x86 != ppc
Solution: use ~ppc |
