Any chance you can post more output, before the stuff that you've already shown?

Strangely enough, it's OK when I run `python /usr/bin/emerge sync'.

Has your xbox seen any other difficulties (like in games, etc.)?

If yes, there could be a hardware problem. If no, try deleteing all gentoox files and reinstalling (if you didn't delete them all before).

If my memory doesn't fail me, just use `magic f:' as root. That will move rootfs to the F:, but all other files must stay in the root of E:!

Nobspangle is right. And, about your menu: once you get used to running applications in the terminal, you'll never go back to the menu.

Emerge is for installing programs, not running them. Just delete the files you copied, and type (as root) "emerge limewire". Then, to run limewire, just type (as user) "limewire".

Boot from an installation CD/DVD where you know the root password. Then chroot to your gentoox filesystem. Then run passwd.

The default, as it says in the manual is "xbox" (sans quotes).

Whose forums are you on?

:wink:

Gentoox should be faster to run, easier, and has a larger community. Plus, ShALLaX can kick Ed's ass at Quake.

Strange Error on every First Boot

This has happened for a while, but I'm just sick of it. Whenever I boot the xbox for the first time in a few hours, I get a huge long error. It goes like this: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtaul address 00000010 *pde = 00000000 Oops = 0000 CPU: 0 (A whole ton of register ent...

Since there is not a configuration file for BIOS, recompiling Cromwell would be the only way (unless there are other BIOSes out there . . . I wonder?). I digress, but you would not be the first guy to be killed while watching a movie when driving. So don't have it near the driver's seat.

Apache's installed in /var/www/localhost/htdocs?

. . . cheap joke. Anyway, have you tried chmod? Just use man or google to get a tutorial.

PS: Generally speaking, it's a bad idea to do anything as root, unless you have system administration to do.
