I just completed my first Gentoo install but after restarting I recieved an error that I had forgotten to enable a feature in the Kernel that Gentoo needs (forget off top of my head what).. I can still boot to Gentoo however.. Just wondering how i got about recompiling it again to inlcude what I left out?

same steps as last time basically? thx!!!

hi
you can recompile your kernel.
make mrproper
make menuconfig
change anything u want
make dep && make clean bzImage modules modules_install
mount /boot
mv /boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage.old
cp /usr/src/linux...../arch/i386/boot/bzImage /boot
edit /boot/grub/menu.lst
reboot and your problem is fixed
