presuming you are in the chroot:
Code:
ls -l /usr/src
should return the name of the kernel source directory and a symlink to it, as in:

Quote:
total 2
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 22 Oct 9 03:12 linux -> linux-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
drwxr-xr-x 20 root root 1472 Jul 6 02:05 linux-2.6.34-gentoo-r12


if you don't have the source directory:
Code:
emerge gentoo-sources

if you have the source directory, but not the symlink:
Code:
cd /usr/src
ln -s linux linux-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
cd /usr/src/linux

That's what's going on....
I tried doing "emerge pciutils" from the documentation and got "emerge: command not found." Figured I'd misinterpreted the instructions. Guess there's something else wrong here.
Code:
emerge: command not found
root@ubuntu:/mnt/gentoo# emerge gentoo-sources
No command 'emerge' found, did you mean:
 Command 'merge' from package 'rcs' (universe)
 Command 'fmerge' from package 'fhist' (universe)
 Command 'vemerge' from package 'util-vserver' (universe)
 Command 'esmerge' from package 'tstools' (universe)
emerge: command not found

I only have one terminal open, and thought I was working as root. I have the # after ubuntu. I retried ls -l /mnt/gentoo
sudo su --
whoami
and that looked OK, so I did "emerge gentoo-sources" and got command not found again. Here's what I have in the terminal now, if you see anything different.
Code:

from the place you just described (an ubuntu terminal in the ubuntu environment):
Code:
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update
source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"

will take you into the chroot, (an ubuntu terminal running as a gentoo terminal in the gentoo environment you created when you untarred stage3 and portage snapshot)
in that environment emerge will work.
in that environment the prompt will start with (chroot)
in that environment
Code:
ls /
should show

I'm in the kernel configuration set up. Can I just go with the defaults?

run lspci -k and post results

defaults work for the most part but you need drivers for the specific components of your system.

Your wireless not covered, guessing it is usb? What manufacturer, make, model is it? Start a new ubuntu terminal,
Code:
lsmod
and post;
Code:
lsusb -v
dig through the endless output for manufacturer, make, model, drivers , modules associated with wireless.
in the meantime: If default menuconfig differs from this, change to this; for items not listed below leave as default has them.

 I'll have to take a look at the default menu.config. What I'm thinking as I type this is that I don't remember seeing anything like the screen you show. All I see is a blue frame that looks like a Slackware install screen. How do I get to it? When I did "make menuconfig', all I came up with was"Device Drivers", and under
that just 'Generic Driver Options." and didn't see anything as verbose as what you show.

Setup networking (hope this works, long time since I used open unencrypted iwconfig).
The reference
Setup wlan0 to start at boot
Code:
cd /etc/init.d
ln -s net.lo net.wlan0
rc-update add net.wlan0 default

Edit /etc/conf.d/net for wlan0:
Code:
nano /etc/conf.d/net
Quote:
modules_wlan0=( "iwconfig" )
config_wlan0=( "dhcp" )
dhcpcd_wlan0="-t 10"
key_linksys="[1] off key [1] enc open"
sleep_scan_wlan0="3"

Ok, /etc/conf.d/net has those lines added.

Went ahead and compiled the kernel. Having trouble copying the kernel image to boot. I show linux-2.6.34-gentoo-r12.
the guide says :cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r1

I changed it to cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
But I get "cp: cannot stat `arch/i386/boot/bzImage': No such file or directory"

Code:
ls /usr/src/linux/arch
is there an i386 directory? If not try substituting x86 for i386 in the command
you need to be in /usr/src/linux in the chroot for
Code:
cp arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
to work; the prompt should end in linux; if not
Code:
cd /usr/src/linux
and try again or from anywhere in the chroot,
Code:
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
should work

Code:
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
to check
Code:
ls -l /boot
should show size of kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12 at ~4-6 MB
Code:
cat /usr/src/linux/.config | less

Ok, here goes nuthin'.
Code:
CONFIG_64BIT=y
# CONFIG_X86_32 is not set
CONFIG_X86_64=y
CONFIG_X86=y
CONFIG_OUTPUT_FORMAT="elf64-x86-64"

CONFIG_CLOCKSOURCE_WATCHDOG=y
CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS=y
CONFIG_GENERIC_CLOCKEVENTS_BROADCAST=y
CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT=y
CONFIG_STACKTRACE_SUPPORT=y
CO


When I ran cp /usr/src/linux/ it returned no such file or directory.

Code:
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
needs to be run in the chroot. Or
Code:
cp /mnt/gentoo/usr/src/linux/arch/x86/boot/bzImage /mnt/gentoo/boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
will work if ubuntu cd is booted, the gentoo partitions mounted, but not in the chroot.
the kernel you built is a 64bit so i386 (from the 32 bit handbook) is not valid but x86 or x86_64 is.
you can test the directory structure by successive:
Code:
cd /usr/src/linux
Code:
cd arch
Code:
cd x86
Code:
cd boot
Code:
ls
should show a bzImage

Maybe I THOUGHT I compiled the kernel! I ran "make && make modules_install" and ASSUMED that all was well. Maybe it isn't!

Code:
(chroot) ubuntu linux # cp /usr/src/linux/arch/x86/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12
cp: cannot stat `/usr/src/linux/arch/x86/boot/bzImage': No such file or directory

Otherwise:
Code:
(chroot) ubuntu linux # cd /usr/src/linux
(chroot) ubuntu linux # cd arch
(chroot) ubuntu arch # cd x86
(chroot) ubuntu x86 # cd boot
(chroot) ubuntu boot # ls

if things are really strange the bzImage is actually at /usr/src/linux/arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage even though /usr/src/linux/arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage should only be a symlink to /usr/src/linux/arch/x86/boot/bzImage
just for fun try:
Code:
cp /usr/src/linux/arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/kernel-2.6.34-gentoo-r12


when you recompile watch for error messages

Code:
cat /proc/cpuinfo
and post result

Nothing happened when I ran it. Shot down again, I'm afraid.
