from your email it sounds like you do not have devfs compiled into the kernel. The installation instructions say: File systems ---> ... [*] /proc file system support (Required for Gentoo Linux.) [*] /dev file system support (EXPERIMENTAL) [*] Automatically mount at boot (Required for Gentoo Linux.) [ ] /dev/pts file system for Unix98 PTYs (Uncheck this, it is NOT needed.) ... <*> Second extended fs support (Only needed if you are using ext2.) ... <*> XFS filesystem support (Only needed if you are using XFS.) Is this as yours looks? -- Tom Wesley Please encrypt personal replies if possible.
