My system configuration is a bit strange: (laptop)
1 IDE hard drive, only /boot is on that, for storing kernel and
initrd, and the place for grub
1 pcmcia--usb2.0 adapter
1 usb2.0 externel hard drive, for /, /usr, /home... everything else,

I've been looking for documentation on genkernel 3.0.1_beta9 and not

From /usr/src, I did:

I have USB crashing on me after upgrading to gentoo-sources-2.4.20-r9.
I vaguely remember having similar problems from r7 to r8, which were then solved by
multiple runs of Genkernel (I think it was with the same settings file.

I've spent an hour reading forum stuff about bootsplash, but I don't see any
answers to the issue of using genkernel and bootsplash together.
The problem is that they both create their own initrd file, and I don't know
how to combine them. Does anyone have bootsplash working with a genkernel

This is what I use:

By default, genkernel --config always uses menuconfig. Is there an option that

It gets to make modules and then stops no error messages or anything

I originally emerge'd gentoo-sources and used genkernel to build a kernel.
Fine no problem. It built and installed the kernel and modules.
Today I emerge'd gs-sources and used genkernel to build a kernel. It built
the kernel and modules but didn't install either. Why is this?

I solved my problem.
Busybox include ugly insmod, so after
building my own initrd whit real bash and
insmod all works ok.

Had a quick look inside the script earlier: thats the only way I found
the --config argument, though I saw it mentioned on the install docs
later.
Another question I have is does genkernel do 2.6 kernels, or is it good
for only 2.4?

Unfortunately, the only form of documentation I have found is
/usr/sbin/genkernel itself.
Where is the genkernel documentation hiding? I would like to find out
some details such as does it use distcc, or ccache, what options can it

It appears that as it doesn't have even basic documentation, it should
not have been released into stable use. Was it QA'd?

I've been using genkernel on my latest install and it's been handy,
automating several steps especially making sure /boot is mounted.
Today I emerged in a new kernel version. I fixed my /usr/src/linux link
and copied over my .config from the old kernel tree to the new one. Then
I run genkernel --c
Works now!
This will be quite usefull for me, as I have about 20 Linux pc's to

Kernel upgrades will be much easier now!
