Problems with Gentoo...

I'm having problems installing Gentoo. I need to install (in this case, "emerge") coldplug, But it and it's subsidaries are masked!

If you know how to fix this, make a comment, please!


Just so you know, I am running a 664 megahertz i686 architecture computer with 128 megahertz.

Hm strange to hear that coldplug is masked. It emerged just fine here on amd64 system.

But to unmask a certain package just create a file in /etc/portage called package.unmask and put lines like
=category/package-version

instead of = you can use < or > or similar to control which version to unmask.

I hope this helps.
