Maybe I lost it after 'fsck'. In that case you should find it in 'lost+found'. If you are missing stuff - search in /var/db/pkg/ for packages which installed something in /etc. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
Re: [gentoo-user] Problem after 'fsck' on mounted filesystem
Hi hwh, I've entered number 0 - 6, none of them works. Should I use 'boot'? or 'default' instead of numbers? I could not find the /etc directory now. Maybe I lost it after 'fsck'.

Re: [gentoo-user] Problem after 'fsck' on mounted filesystem
Hi, I tried fsck.ext3 on the unmount partitions. It is not fixing. I still get the asking for input runlevel. No matter what runlevel you input, it always response with "no more process left on this runlevel".

If the OP really ran an fsck on a writable filesystem, all kinds of errors might have occured. To the OP: - was the partition mounted writable? - what are you actually entering at the prompt (i.e. what runlevel)? - did you try starting from a live CD and fsck'ing the -- unmounted -- partitions? -hwh -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
