drwxr-xr-x 23 root root 4096 Jan 27 16:03 linuxx-2.6.27-gentoo-r8 |

in the src directory when I type in ls -l i get nothing (total 0) but i am able to get to the top of the kernel tree and get into the linux directory
should i make clean and make mrpropper before i start?
When i name kernel configuration should i just name them random stuff?
and can i name my end kernel anything, or do i have 2 use kernel-2.6.27-gentoo-r8? |

and in src after i type dir i get alot of squshfs errors and can not enter anything
| Code: | livecd src # dir
SQUASHFS error: sb-bread failer reading block 0x559
SUASHFS errror: unable to read fragment block 142bc3,size b1ee

should i make clean and make mrpropper before i start? --no
When i name kernel configuration should i just name them random stuff? --no you should not be naming the configuration if using a current 2008.0 amd64 handbook -- however i do:
| Code: | rename /boot/config /boot/config.old
cp .config /boot/config |
after each new kernel compile. Yes I could call the /boot file anything
and can i name my end kernel anything, or do i have 2 use kernel-2.6.27-gentoo-r8? -- recommend sticking to the gentoo system until up and running -- However i do:
| Code: | rename /boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage.old
cp arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage /boot/bzImage |
after each new kernel compile. Yes I could call the /boot file anything.
Doing this means I do not have to edit grub.conf for a kernel change. |

This is because you are in the cd system not in the chroot
phonetically means sounds like ls -l sounds like ell ess dash ell in uppercase would be LS -L
again to enter the chroot:
boot the cd then:
| Code: | mount /dev/sdc3 /mnt/gentoo
mount /dev/sdc1 /mnt/gentoo/boot
mount -t proc none /mnt/gentoo/proc
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev
chroot /mnt/gentoo /bin/bash
env-update
source /etc/profile
export PS1="(chroot) $PS1"
|
then
check the symlink is | Quote: | | linux -> linux-2.6.27-gentoo-r8 |
then
| Code: | cd /usr/src/linux
ls -l |
result should resemble: | Quote: | -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18693 Dec 24 18:26 COPYING
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 93212 Dec 24 18:26 CREDITS

OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
i finnaly figured out what i did wrong, when i would save config files in make menuconfig i would name them like config4, not .config ---- so i was compling the same kernel evry time, wow that was really dumb. so i am making the new 1 now and it should work this time. going 2 try =D. but wow that was stupid XD. well, live and learn
hope that it will work now, and i didn't do anything else stupid.
also, i made this kernel huge for support. so when i re-do menu config and recompile. i can just copy it over 2 boot as a different name and then there will be two right? (off course have grub do both) |
