Thank you Bob, I followed all steps up to rebuilding the kernel, however I got stuck at # emerge sync temporary failure in name resolution; rsync error: error in socket IO (code 10) at clientserver.c (88) # emerge-webrsync attempting to fetch file dated... (a bunch of them); no md5 sum present on the mirror
I have a 3Com 3c905C-TX/TX-M Tornado Ethernet card; when I compiled the kernel (2.4), to make sure, I added all 3Com cards as modules. Now when I boot from hda1 I get the same error message (problem starting needed services; "netmount" was not started), however # ifconfig, unlike before, produces some output. I'm still missing something - but what? Please advise.
