    Installing a Kernel Source



    This is my first Gentoo base install and I am starting to get it but I have run into a problem. When I type emerge gentoo-sources I get this error message:
    Error parsing proxy URL http://proxy.server.comort: Bad port number.
    Did you do something wrong on the configuration.

    You got something wrong with your configuration, we need the output of
    echo $http_proxy
    echo $ftp_proxy
    cat /etc/make.conf

    Okay, I think you are right, It seems that I do not have the http or ftp proxy configured. Can I back track and get them configured? If so, do I have to back track out of (chroot) livecd / #? Thanks for the info.

    Just reset the environment variables inside the chroot again.

    Refer to the handbook
