Try running "dmesg |grep devfs", the output should read something like "Mounted devfs on /dev". If that's not there, then you may not have your new kernel installed or booted.

For 3 weeks I have been trying t build a system, on a PIII w/ a 60g HD. The system builds ok from livecd, but when started on its own I get 3 errors.
1. devfs not installed, bull shit I have set every thing on in filesystem except debugging and it is set to [*], used the setup from a running gentoo system, same mobo same drives types. tempfs installed on boot to /etc/mtab, /etc/fstab is the same except hda partition a little different.
2. I have /dev/hda1 /boot ext2
/dev/hda2 swap
/dev/hda3 / reiserfs all on a 30g of space
/dev/hda3 /extended all of the rest of hd
3. no networking, even thought I have set everthing up in setup and it
worked nicely. even brought over hosts, nsswitch & resolve from working
machine.
I can get the msg from /var/log/msg file if need be, not much there. any help appreciated. Really getting tired of this, it should work without this much effort.
cheers
