hi everyone.
i have installed gentoo from stage1, compiled the kernel myself and installed grub and hotplug (if that helps...)
after i finished installing gentoo i've restarted the computer and got this error:
| Code: | | kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k binfmt-464c, errno = 8 |
it just prints this msg over and over agaun and wont load gentoo...

Have you compiled in (not as module) ELF-binary support?
As in,
| Code: | | # CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF is not set |
in /usr/src/linux/config?

Yes, you definitely need it, as the ELF-executable binary format is the format of all/most executables on your system. Go to /usr/src/linux on your new system (with the boot cd or something, then it would be /mnt/gentoo/usr/src/linux) and look at the file called "config". Search for CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF and see if it is set as a module or not activated at all... |
