You need to compile everything statically.
build-initrd.sh uses ldd to find the necesary libraries and copies them to boot. Gentoo's ldd output is broken.
For example, insmod is needed.
| Code: |
ldd /sbin/insmod
linux-gate.so.1 => (0xffffe000)
^ missing!
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0xb7eb9000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0xb7feb000)
^ missing!

I suggest getting another machine with the same kernel and recompiling everything statically on it and write the needed programs to floppy. Then boot with a gentoo cd and copy or ftp or scp the programs over to your /boot partition.
Good Luck! |
