Unable to install kernel


quor

Question

Hello, I accidentally deleted my kernels and now I find I'm currently unable to install any (I have tried both debian-sources and debian-sources-lts). I'm still using debian-sources because my computer is still on.

The problem seems to be during the installation, but I don't really understand what's going on. Here are the info and logs:

# emerge --info '=sys-kernel/debian-sources-lts-4.19.132_p1::core-kit'

 

# emerge -pqv '=sys-kernel/debian-sources-lts-4.19.132_p1::core-kit'

[ebuild  N    ] sys-kernel/debian-sources-lts-4.19.132_p1  USE="binary custom-cflags luks lvm -btrfs -ec2 -sign-modules -zfs" 

 

# less /var/tmp/portage/sys-kernel/debian-sources-lts-4.19.132_p1/temp/build.log

 

Any idea of what's going on? :(

There is no bug report about the failure to mv/rename all the files in /boot by appending their existing names with -debian-sources or -debian-sources-lts

You could either go to the root of the file system and extract the ./boot directory which contains the kernel,initramfs,and SystemMap files from the stage3 tarball or copy them from /var/tmp/portage/sys-kernel/debian-sources-lts-4.19.132_p1/image.

Thanks for your reply. I have tried installing debian-sources with "-binary" USE and installing with genkernel, and it has worked so far. Thanks for your suggestion, in case of "disaster" I'll do that. I'm new to Funtoo and I'm still figuring out the directories, etc. of the kernel and such, as I'm not used to having this degree of low-level control.

In case debian-sources isn't still able to install the kernel, should I report it as a bug, or is it most likely an error on my side?
