I cannot access your buildgrublog.txt of 15 May (Error 403) > How can my attempts to follow the Handbook instructions have failed so > miserably that I can't even emerge such a basic package as Grub Legacy?

Emerge it with a LiveCD, configure it, reboot and see if your system emerges better now. Or, set -ccache in FEATURES in your /etc/make.conf and try again. BTW, if you originally had ccache working and left stales files under /var/tmp/ccache/* you better delete these first. http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?full=1#book_part2_chap3 > As an aside, pages like http://www.gentoo.org/proj/en/qa/asneeded.xml don't > fit. I recall this discussed before. Some pages do not have the correct CSS to define a max page width which for todays browsers should typically be 1024. Could be caused by the CMS used or some error in coding by the webmaster. Not sure if a bug on this has been filled before. Worth checking the M/L archives to see what was the conclusion. Also worth trying loading just the frame to see if it can show up correctly. -- Regards, Mick
