That's because it cannot find mindi: bach ~ # mindi -bash: mindi: command not found /usr/sbin/mindi is a broken symlink to /usr/share/mindi/mindi, which does not exist. There is a bug for this on b.g.o. (along with others for missing dependencies in the ebuild). Furthermore, it's not clear at all what the current portage status of mondo-rescue is. The liquidx overlay has newer mondo ebuilds, but doing a quick check they seem to be broken too. It's perhaps easier to use some other tool with better "official" portage support, like dar/kdar (yes, I'm aware that I am the one that suggested mondorescue in the first place, but at that time I was using it under LFS, not gentoo. Nevertheless, I thought setting it up under gentoo should have been easy - hence my advice -, but it seems that I was wrong. My apologies). -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
