bootstrapping (on OSX)

Hi all,

I've updated the bootstrap page [1] with some instructions
that should
"in theory work".  I haven't found the time yet to
try it myself, so if
someone feels like spending some time with it, feel invited
and report
back

Thanks!  If you can wait like 10 minutes, I can upload the
fix for the
problem found by Tobias, which you will run into as well.

I'm emerging bash (1st time) right now.  Should I start
over?

I think it best is when you do (sorry)....  You'll get
problems after
you emerge portage otherwise.

Make absolutely sure that you redownload the bootstrap
script and the
tree snapshot: prefix-overlay-*.tar.bz2.

Thanks, I'm very curious how far you'll get...

I got to:

$ emerge --nodeps "=sys-apps/coreutils-6.4*"
Calculating dependencies
emerge: there are no ebuilds to satisfy
"=sys-apps/coreutils-6.4*".

Is there a syntax error in that command or something?
