Hi everybody, I've installed Gentoo 1.4 from LiveCD. Everything compile find but when I boot Linux Gentoo for the first time, it's stop at the /proc mounting point.

I reboot with my LiveCD and I check my linux partition and ther's no /proc ?!?

What can I do?!? I don't want to re-install again!

Re-read the Installation Guide. If you follow it ste-by-step you should have no trouble. Is there a /proc line in your /etc/fstab file? Did you ever modify your /etc/fstab file to specify your boot, root and swap partitions? Did you perhaps forget to uncomment something?

psingcaster,

did you compile proc support into the kernel?

I did everything you told!

Is there a way to create the /proc system without re-installing?!?

P.S. It's not the first time I install gentoo but it's the first time that append.

just to add to what Pete_Keller said...
If you're booting from your liveCD, first mount your drive, to say, /mnt/gentoo then
mkdir /mnt/gentoo/proc
