Hi.. I did all what the install-intructions told me to do.. but when I reboot for the first time after installing gentoo ang grub and so on.. I get these errors..
couldn't find eth0
and
my root and userlogins are gone ?!?!?! I cant login as root NOR my user account.. (it seens that the installation didn't install my eth0 and user/root accounts correctly...
how can I fix this without reinstall gentoo ?? I mean.. I cant even login as root..

make sure you haven't skipped or made mistakes in the editing of /etc/conf.d/net
please refer to here in case you've forgotten.
also, you'll need to emerge some extra programs if you're using dhcp network connection or pppoe cable modem connection.
refer here for what to install in that case. |

I use dhcp, but it didn't say anything to install any further stuff to that.. and its not through ppp, just dhcp
I'll try tomorrow when I arrives to the PC again.. |

My eth0 wasn't recognized when I built the driver into my kernel, but when I built it as a module it was.
Be sure to add the module name to /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6. |

from inside the computer try the normal things to get it running, | Code: | | /etc/init.d/net.eth0 (re)start |
also post | Code: | | rc-update show default |
and | Code: | | rc-update show boot |

thats because chroot is "change root" and /mnt/hda isn't a root, nor is /dev/hda and there wont even be a /mnt/hda. what you have to do is mount /dev/hda3 in /mnt/gentoo and /dev/hda1 in /mnt/gentoo/boot then chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash

nil problemo, we all do it.
I didn't do it for 6 months and forgot, i sat there wondering why "chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash" wouldn't work... Well it was because i forgot to mount /dev/hda3 in /mnt/gentoo etc
