i run emerge --ask sys-kernel/linux-firmware to install it, and it gives me the error in the picture

#

Correct me if I'm wrong but can't you do --autounmask

austere halo Sep 30, 2024, 11:24 PM

#

it looks like the license

#

in your make.conf what does your LICENSE=
say

clever grail Sep 30, 2024, 11:25 PM

#

autounmask fixed it

obtuse geode Sep 30, 2024, 11:27 PM

#

Yep

#

Thought so

#

But can you also listen to what he has to say

#

Or they

austere halo Sep 30, 2024, 11:28 PM

#

he is fine

obtuse geode Sep 30, 2024, 11:28 PM

#

Did you set a accept license

#

Or what

austere halo Sep 30, 2024, 11:28 PM

#

i just think its important to know what it does and where it makes the changes

#

cause if something breaks later you know where

obtuse geode Sep 30, 2024, 11:28 PM

#

For example

#

?

austere halo Sep 30, 2024, 11:28 PM

#

that one specifically was a license

#

id edit /etc/portage/package.license

#

add it there to accept binary redist

#

thats the error, fairly sure

#

.# Binary redistributables for linux-firmware drivers
sys-kernel/linux-firmware @BINARY-REDISTRIBUTABLE
sys-firmware/intel-microcode @BINARY-REDISTRIBUTABLE

obtuse geode Sep 30, 2024, 11:31 PM

#

I'm not seeing what you're seeing

#

What made you think such and such

#

?

austere halo Sep 30, 2024, 11:32 PM

#

#

license(s), missing keyword(s)

#

🙂

#

austere halo Sep 30, 2024, 11:47 PM

#

error?

clever grail Sep 30, 2024, 11:47 PM

#

imma try the AUR package to install gentoo

#

apparently there one and i never knew about it

clever grail Oct 1, 2024, 11:14 PM

#

nothing has worked to install it

#

not even the official installer script

#

#

i just read the notice at the top of the installer page

#while installing gentoo, the kernel wont install
