/Edit
I've followed the handbook to the letter - installing via SSH, and I have had to close and start a new session at one point (if that makes any difference) i redid the chrooting after that cause the genkernel command didnt work at all.
I'm a total noob. (first attempt at installing any linux distro, first time using linux)
I'm running:
This is the log (massive, sorry  ):

Any advice? Anything else I can provide that might help you help me? 
Thanks

Failed to make modules isn't much to go on.
Try this :
(Others may disagree)
cd /usr/src/linux
make modules
I'm hoping it picks up the kernel config file generated by genkernel and outputs something more helpful. |

Oh, man...I got the kernel compile error AND the chroot mystery. The really frustrating thing about the compile error | Code: | | ERROR: failed to compile the "modules" target |
is that it doesn't appear to occur until the bitter end of the compile...I mean I went through every page of genkernel.log (and there must be a few hundred of em I swear) and there doesn't appear to be any problem until the end.
Meanwhile, | Code: | | chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash |
does...nothing! Nothing changes, not the command shell, not the command prompt...AND, as ridiculous as this must sound, I now appear to be trapped in the cd environment...ever since the kernel compile, the directory has disappeared. From:
typing either OR there is no gentoo directory.

Thusfar you've unpacked some stage out into some filesystem you created. You've got all the source code and a basic system right there. You've chrooted into this basic system. You've set the appropriate compile flags for your hardware. You've got genkernel to automatically build you a kernel just like the fat LiveCD one plus all the modules (drivers etc) it thinks you need.
Except that at the end, it says 'failed to build modules'. Why? There must be some more compile errors (don't worry about warnings that flash by like 'function is deprecated' or 'never declared that' type 'oooh isn't he a naughty developer stuff'). Are you still in the chrooted environment? /mnt/gentoo is in the LiveCD environment. Try lspci - the LiveCD has it, your system probably doesn't. Type uname -r, then pwd.
Are you sure it has failed? Have you got anything in /lib/kernel-2.4-whatever/modules/ at all? Or did it just make the bzImage (the kernel) and then go "modules? what modules?".
If you are not still in go back a couple of Handbook steps; try rebooting from the LiveCD, mounting the filesystem and chrooting back into your basic system then:
You should have a .config file generated by genkernel here. (If not here then in /etc/genkernel or something)
EDIT:/usr/share/genkernel/x86/kernel-config-2.4 actually
Now try manually compiling the modules:
or if you can sit through the kernel again
| Code: |
make deps && make bzImage modules
|
What happens? |
