Installing Gentoo under coLinux

[JacquesMaeder]

Hi,

I am traying to install Gentoo under coLinux (in WIndows XP) using Gentoo-colinux-stage3-x86-2004.3 (renamed root_Gento after extraction)

When starting coLinus I either get the error messsage:

CO-RC_ERROR_EROR, line 339, file colinux/user/config.o (64)

with <block_device index="0" path="\DosDevices\C:\coLinux\root_Gentoo" enabled="true"/>
in the default coLinux.xml

or

VFS: cannot open root device "NULL" or unknown-block (0,0)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option

with
<block_device index="0" path="\DosDevices\C:\coLinux\root_Gentoo" enabled="true"/></block_device>
in the default coLinux.xml

Can anyone help ?

You said more than once that your configfile was "default colinux.xml"

The real file is "default.colinux.xml"


Despite that, how do you start your colinux session?
