ummm... where is cat?

[mitchd@aias mitchd]$ pacman -o /bin/cat
[mitchd@aias mitchd]$ pacman --owns /bin/cat

I get nothing

my pentium 100 won't boot cds... so i moved the hdd and did an install using pacman --root... all i have left is to find cat and install grub.

any suggestions for installing grub.. right now the drive is /dev/hdb on the host machine, and will become /dev/hda on the p100. I'm thinking boot a floppy using the hdd as root, then installing grub to the MBR, does that sound logical?

[damir@Asteraceae UNI]$ pacman -Qo /bin/cat
/bin/cat is owned by textutils 2.1-2

... you know, that a p100 is actually a i586 ? (are you using i586-packages? how are they working? i have a p90 to switch from FreeBSD to Arch when i find time to :-) )

yes, i modified my /etc/pacman.conf to use the 586 repository

All pacman commands have to be qualified with a pacman operation. Operations are always capital letters, while options are small letters.
