 |
|
I goofed. I was having problems emerging and I rebooted before doing an etc-update.
The machine boots, but baselayout goes nuts and my networking card doesn't work.
If I bring it up by hand with:
| Code: | ifconfig eth0 up
dhcpcd eth0 |
Everything looks okay, but I can't ping myself or the outside world.
I'm attempting to go back to 1.11.13-r1 right now, but the system is acting very strange. It looks like it hung (or is going very slow) trying to unmerge 1.12.0pre12.
The error messages I get during boot are:
(This is hand typed, there may be errors)
| Code: | rc-scripts: adsl does not support the required function provides
rc-scripts: apipa does not support the required function check_installed
etc...
rc-scripts: dhcpcd does not support the required function provides
etc...
rc-scripts: wpa_supplicant does not support the required function provides
rc-scripts: no interface module has been loaded
rc-scripts: FAILED to start service net.eth0!
rc-scripts: FAILED to start service hald
rc-scripts: ERROR: Problem starting needed services.
etc... |
I also emerged the latest hald (I was trying to get KDE 3.5 installed because I have it working at home and I though: oh easy...)
Any ideas, suggestions, "don't panic" advice, etc would be appreciated.

Update: it took a while but 1.11.13-r1 finally emerged, reboot and its working again... Ironically, The latest version of baselayout was not necessary for hal like hal implied and the ~x86 I had added eons ago to get something to work made me upgrade too far... Removing ~x86 from baselayout and re-emerging, fixed everything.
