Didn't the handbook say *not* to do that for a GRP (stage3) install?

You are probably right...let me try

It didn't....:-(


LOL!

Sorry, I don't mean to laugh at your frustration...

It didn't what?
It didn't boot. (I've made a dual LED multivibrator with 3 billion transistors... :->) It's kernel panic again.


It didn't say? See http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=5 where it says:

CHOST

Warning: Although it might be tempting for non-stage1 users, they should not
change the CHOST setting in make.conf. Doing so might render their system
unusable. Again: only change this variable if you use a stage1
installation.


I know that - just (unfortunatelly) forgot it.

It didn't work?  What did you do?  What did you see?

I put "CHOST=i386-pc-linux-gnu". This shall be the default. Correct me if I'm wrong.

What are the default settings of make.conf?
Does anyone still has this file somewhere?

It seems like I'll have to do it again from scratch.

rgds,
Goran
