          | Hello everyone! 
 I recently received my Pegasos and since I have to give away my PC, I need a good and complete system, so I need Linux!
 
 I tried to install Gentoo with the minimal LiveCD and a stage1 tarball.
 The problem is that when executing the bootstrap.sh script, and emerging gettext-0.12.1 (which is the first thing that the scripts tries to compile), I get a failure on "configure autoconf-lib-link": when "checking for C compiler default output file name..." it gives me an error like "cannot create executables"...
 I already tried with the gettext experimental version (but it has the same problem) or updating gcc profile with gcc-config followed by env-update and  source /etc/profile (thanks David!
  ), but without success... The strange thing is that if I try to manually run configure in the gettext's build directory, it works normally....
 
 Is there a way to tell emerge to use my manually created files?
 Why does it work manually, but not automatically through emerge?
 Did somebody experience the same problem?
 
 Thanks

          | A couple of people have reported this bug. We are going to have a Gentoo/PPC meeting this weekend where I hope to address this issue. Meanwhile I recommend that you use stage3  |
