I recently updated portage tree & kernel and using usual genkernel --menuconfig --save-config all
produced unbootable system :( Symptoms point most probably to udev being used by default etc. Here's what I have in grub.conf: title Gentoo linux (updated) root (hd0,0) kernel /kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r4n root=/dev/ram0 real_root=/dev/hda11 init=/linuxrc video=vesafb:[EMAIL PROTECTED] splash=verbose gentoo=nodevfs udev devfs=nomount initrd /initramfs-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-gentoo-r4n I've tried to follow those: http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/udev-guide.xml http://webpages.charter.net/decibelshelp/LinuxHelp_UDEVPrimer.html http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Migrate_to_UDEV http://ftp.kernel.org/pub/linux/utils/kernel/hotplug/udev-FAQ But it doesn't look like it applies to my case or maybe I jumped too far ahead and udev is not fully supported yet? Here's what I get booting (I'm writing it from memory mostly so don't think it's exact output): -install: applet not found /init: 41: ln: not found /init: 45: cat: not found ... >> Loading modules /init: 172: touch: not found /init: 172: cat: not found /init: 172: sed: not found ... >> Activating udev /init: 178: mkdir: not found /sbin/udevstart: not found -=*something about not being able to mount root partition*=- (boot):: -- Dmitry Makovey Web Systems Administrator Athabasca University (780) 675-6245
