I've got gentoo running since January on my old HP Omnibook, but I just for a Dell D400 at work (light and small) and want to kill off WinXP. However, I need to be able to boot up something on the new machine which has no ide or scsi cdrom... just a usb cdrom.
I can't seem to get my gentoo disk to boot properly as the mounting doesn't want to use a usb cdrom on the LiveCD. I get: mount: Mounting /newroot/dev/cdroms/* on /newroot/mnt/cdrom failed: No such file or directory. -- CD Not found and I have a busybox prompt. But no modules that seem to give scsi simulation and thus can't mount the cdrom. Unless somebody has a better suggestion on how to get a working filesystem, I'm going to try a debian install and bootstrap from there. -- Jon/mycr0ft -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
