 |
|
| I was installing and when I went to reboot the system, /mnt/gentoo/dev wouldn't unmount. I just went ahead and rebooted my system. When I rebooted, /dev was populated with the original stage3 /dev with all sorts of stuff. Basically populated with everything that /dev can pretty much hold. hda-hdf and fd0 to fd9 and whatnot. I reapplied the stage3 without overwriting anything but /dev. It worked on the next reboot. Then I emerged deskbar-applet and some other stuff. I go to reboot and alsa can't find anything and /dev is overpopulated. I don't want to have to start over again. Is there something I screwed up? If it's related, X11 will randomly stop working because of vm86 gives some signal 11 or something. If I restart it fixes it. Something is wrong here. What can I do? Let me know if you want anything posted. |
