Hi All,

First of all thanks for this thread! It helped me a lot. In short:

I was not able to login to my notebook after battery discharge reboot...
Thanks, I always have Gentoo live USB drive. So:

1. I booted to livecd
2. chrooted to my system (thanks I still not encrypted my hdd)
3. emerge --ask --update --newuse --deep @world
4. reboot
5. Happy Login!

:-)
