Re: [gentoo-user] failures
Rick, Try running "dmesg |grep devfs", the output should read something like "Mounted devfs on /dev". If that's not there, then you may not have your new kernel installed or booted.

Re: [gentoo-user] failures
If you do this: cat /usr/src/linux/.config | \ grep -i devfs | \ grep -v "# CONFIG" Do you see this: CONFIG_DEVFS_FS=y CONFIG_DEVFS_MOUNT=y I apologize for asking this, but I do not know exactly where your are at, so does /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage match /boot/bzImage, and is the date later than that of /usr/src/linux/.config?

Did you check the "install automatically at boot" (or equivalent) for devfs in menuconfig?
