Well, of course! This is Gentoo - no rpm hell here! What you
need is "rpm -ivh --nodeps Win4Lin..."
I'm not the sharpest tool in the shed so maybe I am missing
something. Why not do a emerge win4lin and be done with it? Why
does it have to be a rpm install when it is in portage? Like I
said, maybe I'm missing something here.
well, not sure about the pro version, but the regular version
vanished from portage..... had to download the rpm, emerge rpm, and
vanilla sources, patch my kernel, rebuild, install new kernel, then
install the rpm. been great other than that :).
[EMAIL PROTECTED] / # emerge -p win4lin
These are the packages that I would merge, in order:
Calculating dependencies ...done!
[ebuild N ] app-emulation/win4lin-5.1.1

Looks simple to me. I'm confused, which is normal for me, don't
worry.

To err is human, I'm most certainly human.
I have four rigs:
1: Home built; Abit NF7 ver 2.0 w/ AMD 2500+ CPU, 1GB of ram and
right now two 80GB hard drives.
2: Home built; Iwill KK266-R w/ AMD 1GHz CPU, 256MBs of ram and a
4GB drive.
3: Home built; Gigabyte GA-71XE4 w/ 800MHz CPU, 128MBs of ram and
a 2.5GB drive.
4: Compaq Proliant 6000 Server w/ Quad 200MHz CPUs, 128MBs of ram
and a 4.3GB SCSI drive.
All run Gentoo Linux, all run folding. #1 is my desktop, 2, 3, and
4 are set up as servers.
