Thanks for the info.

Is there an alternative? I have other Linux partitions that I need to boot into.

Use sudo or user root:

cd /var/cache/portage/distfiles
wget http://www6.frugalware.org/mirrors/linux/frugalware/frugalware-current/source/base/os-prober/os-prober_1.74.tar.xz
emerge -av os-prober

It is still giving me the same message. IIt does not seem like it is building from that dir.

I was even in the distfile's dir when I "emerge -av os-prober" and it still gave the repeating 404 message.
