That's a silly idea. The reason portage checks such things is to avoid running a command that is guaranteed to fail, and you are trying to bypass that. What is the package you are trying to fetch, how big is it, how much disk space do you have free (full df -h please) and what is the full output to the console? -- Alan McKinnon alan dot mckinnon at gmail dot com -- gentoo-user@lists.gentoo.org mailing list
