• [gentoo-user] Strange behaviour chrooting into an existing system

    From Peter Humphrey@21:1/5 to All on Sun Jun 22 13:50:01 2025
    Greetings,

    I'm building a new system on bare silicon, and it's complete except that I've done something daft in efibootmgr and bootctl, so that I can't boot.

    Easy, I thought; just fire up the rescue CD, chroot in again and sort out what I've done wrong.

    But I can't, or not smoothly, because of an error, repeated several times, to the effect that the US locale can't be found. Of course it can't - I set it to en_GB while building the system.

    I assume I can just ignore that and continue anyway, but why has this
    behaviour changed? I'm sure I've done the same sort of thing many times
    before.
