Problem was it couldn't find the kernel source.
Solution:
- Code: Select all
emerge =sabayon-sources-`uname -r | sed -e 's/-sabayon//'` && cd /usr/src/linux && zcat /proc/config.gz > ./.config && cp /boot/System.map* ./System.map && make prepare && make modules_prepare
But before that I was still under xeffects, I needed to use the layman command to revert back to sabayon. I did that by running this
- Code: Select all
layman -d xeffects && layman -a sabayon
