>From inspecting the ebuild of genkernel 3.4.23.1 I can tell that genkernel 3.4.23.1 is meant to work with busybox 1.19.3 out of the box. So if genkernel asks for 1.18.1 that means you still have "1.18.1" in your genkernel config. Either a call to etc-update is outstanding or you actively decided for that version of busybox in the past. In the latter case, just get busybox-1.18.1.tar.bz somewhere and drop it in /var/cache/genkernel/src/. I hope that helped. Best, Sebastian
