Hi all. I'm trying to install Gentoo on Acer Chromebook with eMMC onboard. Gentoo installer doesn't see this device. I tried to start gentoo with loading module like
Code:
gentoo doload=mmc_block


but
Code:
lsmod | grep mmc


shows nothing

I tried to load it manually

Code:
modprbobe mmc_block


It worked, module loaded but I don't see anything like /dec/mmcblcX:

Code:
# fdisk -l | grep dev

You don't have to use the gentoo-minimal installation medium to install Gentoo. I take it that is what you're using? Just boot up a distribuition that sees your mmc and follow the installation handbook from there.
