this was the first time i got close to successfully installing gentoo linux. but i came short. i got a kernel panic after i rebooted. i am running grub and this is what the /boot/grub/grub.conf looks like
default 0 timeout 15 splashimage=(hd1,0)/boot/grub/splash.xpm.gz title=Gentoo Linux root (hd1,0) kernel (hd1,0)/boot/bzImage root=/dev/hdb3 title=Windows XP root (hd0,0) chainloader (hd0,0)+1 and the winXp works fine but gentoo gives me the panic. My machine is setup with one drive(100gig) for win and one drive(80gig) for linux. i formated the win with fat32 and the linux i partitioned 100MB for /boot /dev/hdb0 250MB for /swap /dev/hdb1 rest for / /dev/hdb2 so the above i believe is correct in order for the machine to boot gentoo but it fails. and if something would require me to recompile the kernel i have no idea how to get into the shell to do so. so i could use a little help from here.
