Problem 1:

I can't extract any stage tarball. tar tells me that it can't create hard links to certain files. df tells me everything has free space, and I have tried doing this with proc mounted and unmounted.

Problem 2:

I would like to do x86 Stage 1, but during bootstrap, it tells me that the compiler can't create executables. My believe my make.conf is correctly set, and running g++ reveals that the system cannot "run/locate g++."

1) Which files? Can you post the exact error message you get?

2) You don't get g++ until after doing the bootstrap, for some as yet unknown reason... it's usually a problem in your /etc/make.conf that produces that sort of error - can you post that as well?

It sounds like some of your partitions or folders have been marked read only. Try checking the permissions of /usr and it's subdirectories. Also make sure you are using the -p option when untarring the stage tarball.

I can't get that far yet, but I'll do that when I can.
