Hey Everyone, I recently installed Gentoo. Everything went okay apart from /boot refusing to mount from /dev/hda1 on startup when it says mounting local filesystems.. But startup continues normally I just have to manually mount /boot. No problem.
Anyway back on track, I am trying to install php for an apache2 server. PHP doesn't compile and results in an error, so I decided to do a system update
portage -u system
this identified 12 packages to install but the first one texinfo always fails.
The few lines above this areCode:make[2]: *** [texinfo.info] Error 132
make[2]: Leaving directory `/var/tmp/portage/texinfo-4.8/work/texinfo-4.8/doc'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
