Looks like you let it over-write your /etc/fstab You will need to set it up again (be careful with etc-update)
Tks for your response.
The problme is I could not start Gentoo. Kindly advise how to run 'etc-update'
TIA

Hi all folks,
I encountered problem in rebooting Gentoo 1.4 after running
# emerge -u world
IIRC the last item updated is "betagenkernel...."
During rebooting following warning popup;
......
........
Checking all filesystems...
fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while tryinng to open /dev/BOOT
/dev/BOOT:
The superblock could not be read or does not describe a correct ext2 filesystem (and not swap or ufs or something else), then the superblock is corrupt, and you might try running e2fsck with an alternate superblock:
e2fsck - b 8193 <device>
* Fsck could not correct all errors, manual repair need
Give root password for maintaince (or type Control-D for normal startup):
No root password is required to enter. If typing in root password I can't enter, following warning popup;
Login incorrect
It is rather strange
Tried; # fsck /dev/hda # fsck /dev/hda1 # fsck /dev/hda3 etc.
fsck.ext2: No such file or directory while tryinng to open /dev/hda ...... /dev/hda1 ....../dev/hda3 etc.
(remark: harddrive is connected to a ATA controller card) IIRC Gentoo is running on 'reiser fs' . How to check it.
Furthermore 'reboot' (soft) has no effect. I have to press hard-reboot (reset button)
Kindly advise how to fix the problem.
TIA
