I've just completed a fresh Gentoo installation on a new laptop, and strangely, after I choose the entry from the Grub screen, all I get is:Booting `Gentoo Linux 2.6.32-r7` root (hd0,1) Filesystem type is ext2fs, partition type 0x83 kernel /kernel-2.6.32-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/sda4 [Linux-bzImage, setup=0x3000, size=0x1ab020]
The only thing that looks a bit unusual is that your kernel-2.6.xxx appears to be in the root directory instead of in /boot where it usually lives. Is that something you intended to do? Did you install /boot on it's own separate partition? That's the way the gentoo install instructions were written years ago -- but I confess I never did it that way and I've not done a new install recently, so I've lost track.
