That could be a good idea. I got other issues right now. I decided to do a fresh install on the larger drive. I sort of like to brush up every once in a while. I got to the point where I want to do a emerge -e system then copy my world file over and finish it up. It appears that the stage3 tarball is in a state where not much can be upgraded. Every time I try to update something, I get a list of blocks, either packages or USE flags. I'm going to try to beat some sense into this a while longer then I'm going to bed, right after rm -rfv /mnt/gentoo/* is started. ;-) Dale :-) :-) -- I am only responsible for what I said ...
