PostPosted: Sat Dec 19, 2009 4:02 am    Post subject: kernel quits loading when booting up Reply with quote

I just created a new gentoo system. When I boot the system, it sort of freezes after the usb part of the boot up procedure. Even though the boot up stops, I can still see when I connect and disconnect usb devices. I've been working on this problem for 2 weeks and have run out of probable solutions. Here are the pertinent files minus dmesg as it hasn't been generated yet.

fstab:
Code:

/dev/sda2      /boot      ext2      noatime    1 2
/dev/sda8      /      ext3      noatime      0 1
/dev/sdb5               /var            ext3            noatime         0 1
/dev/sdb6               /usr/portage    ext3            noatime         0 1
/dev/sdb8      /home      ext3      noatime      0 1
/dev/sda13      none      swap      sw      0 0

# glibc 2.2 and above expects tmpfs to be mounted at /dev/shm for
# POSIX shared memory (shm_open, shm_unlink).
# (tmpfs is a dynamically expandable/shrinkable ramdisk, and will
#  use almost no memory if not populated with files)
shm         /dev/shm   tmpfs      nodev,nosuid,noexec   0 0
none          /var/tmp/portage  tmpfs       size=6G              0 0

# Build-time functionality
# ========================
#
# The USE variable is used to enable optional build-time functionality. For
# example, quite a few packages have optional X, gtk or GNOME functionality
# that can only be enabled or disabled at compile-time. Gentoo Linux has a
# very extensive set of USE variables described in our USE variable HOWTO at
# http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/handbook-x86.xml?part=2&chap=1
#
# The available list of use flags with descriptions is in your portage tree.
# Use 'less' to view them:  --> less /usr/portage/profiles/use.desc <--
#
# 'ufed' is an ncurses/dialog interface available in portage to make handling
# useflags for you. 'emerge app-portage/ufed'

# Host Setting
# ============
#
CHOST="x86_64-pc-linux-gnu"

# Host and optimization settings
# ==============================
#
# For optimal performance, enable a CFLAGS setting appropriate for your CPU.
#
# Please note that if you experience strange issues with a package, it may be
# due to gcc's optimizations interacting in a strange way. Please test the
# package (and in some cases the libraries it uses) at default optimizations
# before reporting errors to developers.
#
# -mcpu=<cpu-type> means optimize code for the particular type of CPU without
# breaking compatibility with other CPUs. GCC 3.4 has deprecated support for
# -mcpu, so use -mtune instead if using this compiler.
#
# -march=<cpu-type> means to take full advantage of the ABI and instructions
# for the particular CPU; this will break compatibility with older CPUs (for
# example, -march=athlon-xp code will not run on a regular Athlon, and
# -march=i686 code will not run on a Pentium Classic.)
#
# CPU types supported in gcc-3.2 and higher: athlon-xp, athlon-mp,
# athlon-tbird, athlon, k6, k6-2, k6-3, i386, i486, i586 (Pentium), i686
# (PentiumPro), pentium, pentium-mmx, pentiumpro, pentium2 (Celeron),
# pentium3, and pentium4.
#
# Note that Gentoo Linux 1.4 and higher include at least gcc-3.2.
#
# amd64 CPU types supported in gcc-3.4: athlon64, opteron, k8
#
# CRITICAL WARNINGS: ****************************************************** #
# K6 markings are deceptive. Avoid setting -march for them. See Bug #24379. #
# Pentium-M CPU's should not enable sse2 until at least gcc-3.4. Bug 50616. #
# GCC 3.3 doesnt support an amd64 specific -march setting, use 3.4.         #
# ************************************************************************* #
#
# Decent examples:
#
CFLAGS="-march=opteron-sse3 -mtune=opteron-sse3 -O2 -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer"
#CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe -msse3"

# If you set a CFLAGS above, then this line will set your default C++ flags to
# the same settings.
CXXFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"

FFLAGS="${CFLAGS}"

# Advanced Masking
# ================
#
# Gentoo is using a new masking system to allow for easier stability testing
# on packages. KEYWORDS are used in ebuilds to mask and unmask packages based
# on the platform they are set for. A special form has been added that
# indicates packages and revisions that are expected to work, but have not yet
# been approved for the stable set. '~arch' is a superset of 'arch' which
# includes the unstable, in testing, packages. Users of the 'x86' architecture
# would add '~x86' to ACCEPT_KEYWORDS to enable unstable/testing packages.
# '~ppc', '~sparc' are the unstable KEYWORDS for their respective platforms.
#
# Please note that this is not for development, alpha, beta, nor cvs release
# packages. "Broken" packages will not be added to testing and should not be
# requested to be added. Alternative routes are available to developers
# for experimental packages, and it is at their discretion to use them.
#
# DO NOT PUT ANYTHING BUT YOUR SPECIFIC ~ARCHITECTURE IN THE LIST.
# IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF YOUR ARCH, OR THE IMPLICATIONS, DO NOT MODIFY THIS.
#
ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~amd64"

# Portage Directories
# ===================
#
# Each of these settings controls an aspect of portage's storage and file
# system usage. If you change any of these, be sure it is available when
# you try to use portage. *** DO NOT INCLUDE A TRAILING "/" ***
#
# PORTAGE_TMPDIR is the location portage will use for compilations and
#     temporary storage of data. This can get VERY large depending upon
#     the application being installed.
PORTAGE_TMPDIR=/var/tmp/portage
#
# PORTDIR is the location of the portage tree. This is the repository
#     for all profile information as well as all ebuilds. If you change
#     this, you must update your /etc/make.profile symlink accordingly.
PORTDIR=/usr/portage
#
# DISTDIR is where all of the source code tarballs will be placed for
#     emerges. The source code is maintained here unless you delete
#     it. The entire repository of tarballs for Gentoo is 9G. This is
#     considerably more than any user will ever download. 2-3G is
#     a large DISTDIR.
DISTDIR=${PORTDIR}/distfiles
#
# PKGDIR is the location of binary packages that you can have created
#     with '--buildpkg' or '-b' while emerging a package. This can get
#     up to several hundred megs, or even a few gigs.
PKGDIR=${PORTDIR}/packages
#
# PORT_LOGDIR is the location where portage will store all the logs it
#     creates from each individual merge. They are stored as NNNN-$PF.log
#     in the directory specified. This is disabled until you enable it by
#     providing a directory. Permissions will be modified as needed IF the
#     directory exists, otherwise logging will be disabled. NNNN is the
#     increment at the time the log is created. Logs are thus sequential.
PORT_LOGDIR=/var/log/portage
#
# PORTDIR_OVERLAY is a directory where local ebuilds may be stored without
#     concern that they will be deleted by rsync updates. Default is not
#     defined.
PORTDIR_OVERLAY=/usr/portage/local

# Fetching files
# ==============
#
# If you need to set a proxy for wget or lukemftp, add the appropriate "export
# ftp_proxy=<proxy>" and "export http_proxy=<proxy>" lines to /etc/profile if
# all users on your system should use them.
#
# Portage uses wget by default. Here are some settings for some alternate
# downloaders -- note that you need to merge these programs first before they
# will be available.
#
# Default fetch command (5 tries, passive ftp for firewall compatibility)
#FETCHCOMMAND="/usr/bin/wget -t 5 -T 60 --passive-ftp \${URI} -P \${DISTDIR}"
#RESUMECOMMAND="/usr/bin/wget -c -t 5 -T 60 --passive-ftp \${URI} -P \${DISTDIR}"
#
# Using wget, ratelimiting downloads
#FETCHCOMMAND="/usr/bin/wget -t 5 -T 60 --passive-ftp --limit-rate=200k \${URI} -P \${DISTDIR}"
#RESUMECOMMAND="/usr/bin/wget -c -t 5 -T 60 --passive-ftp --limit-rate=200k \${URI} -P \${DISTDIR}"
#
# Lukemftp (BSD ftp):
#FETCHCOMMAND="/usr/bin/lukemftp -s -a -o \${DISTDIR}/\${FILE} \${URI}"
#RESUMECOMMAND="/usr/bin/lukemftp -s -a -R -o \${DISTDIR}/\${FILE} \${URI}"
#
# Portage uses GENTOO_MIRRORS to specify mirrors to use for source retrieval.
# The list is a space separated list which is read left to right. If you use
# another mirror we highly recommend leaving the default mirror at the end of
# the list so that portage will fall back to it if the files cannot be found
# on your specified mirror. We _HIGHLY_ recommend that you change this setting
# to a nearby mirror by merging and using the 'mirrorselect' tool.
GENTOO_MIRRORS="http://mirror.datapipe.net/gentoo http://distfiles.gentoo.org http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/distributions/gentoo"
#
# Portage uses PORTAGE_BINHOST to specify mirrors for prebuilt-binary packages.
# The list is a single entry specifying the full address of the directory
# serving the tbz2's for your system. Running emerge with either '--getbinpkg'
# or '--getbinpkgonly' will cause portage to retrieve the metadata from all
# packages in the directory specified, and use that data to determine what will
# be downloaded and merged. '-g' or '-gK' are the recommend parameters. Please
# consult the man pages and 'emerge --help' for more information. For FTP, the
# default connection is passive -- If you require an active connection, affix
# an asterisk (*) to the end of the host:port string before the path.
#PORTAGE_BINHOST="http://grp.mirror.site/gentoo/grp/1.4/i686/athlon-xp/"
# This ftp connection is passive ftp.
#PORTAGE_BINHOST="ftp://login:pass@grp.mirror.site/pub/grp/i686/athlon-xp/"
# This ftp connection is active ftp.
#PORTAGE_BINHOST="ftp://login:pass@grp.mirror.site:21*/pub/grp/i686/athlon-xp/"

# Synchronizing Portage
# =====================
#
# Each of these settings affects how Gentoo synchronizes your Portage tree.
# Synchronization is handled by rsync and these settings allow some control
# over how it is done.
#
# SYNC is the server used by rsync to retrieve a localized rsync mirror
#     rotation. This allows you to select servers that are geographically
#     close to you, yet still distribute the load over a number of servers.
#     Please do not single out specific rsync mirrors. Doing so places undue
#     stress on particular mirrors.  Instead you may use one of the following
#     continent specific rotations:
#
#   Default:       "rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   North America: "rsync://rsync.namerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   South America: "rsync://rsync.samerica.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   Europe:        "rsync://rsync.europe.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   Asia:          "rsync://rsync.asia.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#   Australia:     "rsync://rsync.au.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#
#     If you have multiple Gentoo boxes, it is probably a good idea to have only
#     one of them sync from the rotations above. The other boxes can then rsync
#     from the local rsync server, reducing the load on the mirrors.
#     Instructions for setting up a local rsync server are available here:
#     http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/rsync.xml
#
SYNC="rsync://rsync.gentoo.org/gentoo-portage"
#
# PORTAGE_RSYNC_RETRIES sets the number of times portage will attempt to retrieve
#     a current portage tree before it exits with an error. This allows
#     for a more successful retrieval without user intervention most times.
PORTAGE_RSYNC_RETRIES="3"
#
# PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS can be used to feed additional options to the rsync
#     command used by `emerge --sync`. This will not change the default options
#     which are set by PORTAGE_RSYNC_OPTS (don't change those unless you know
#     exactly what you're doing).
#PORTAGE_RSYNC_EXTRA_OPTS=""
#
# Advanced Features
# =================
#
# EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS allows emerge to act as if certain options are
#     specified on every run. Useful options include --ask, --verbose,
#     --usepkg and many others. Options that are not useful, such as --help,
#     are not filtered.
#EMERGE_DEFAULT_OPTS=""
#
# INSTALL_MASK allows certain files to not be installed into your file system.
#     This is useful when you wish to filter out a certain set of files from
#     ever being installed, such as INSTALL.gz or TODO.gz
#INSTALL_MASK=""
#
# MAKEOPTS provides extra options that may be passed to 'make' when a
#     program is compiled. Presently the only use is for specifying
#     the number of parallel makes (-j) to perform. The suggested number
#     for parallel makes is CPUs+1.
MAKEOPTS="-j3"
#
# PORTAGE_NICENESS provides a default increment to emerge's niceness level.
#     Note: This is an increment. Running emerge in a niced environment will
#     reduce it further. Default is unset.
PORTAGE_NICENESS=5
#
# AUTOCLEAN enables portage to automatically clean out older or overlapping
#     packages from the system after every successful merge. This is the
#     same as running 'emerge -c' after every merge. Set with: "yes" or "no".
#     This does not affect the unpacked source. See 'noclean' below.
#
#     Warning: AUTOCLEAN="no" can cause serious problems due to overlapping
#              packages.  Do not use it unless absolutely necessary!
AUTOCLEAN="yes"
#
# PORTAGE_TMPFS is a location where portage may create temporary files.
#     If specified, portage will use this directory whenever possible
#     for all rapid operations such as lockfiles and transient data.
#     It is _highly_ recommended that this be a tmpfs or ramdisk. Do not
#     set this to anything that does not give a significant performance
#     enhancement and proper FS compliance for locks and read/write.
#     /dev/shm is a glibc mandated tmpfs, and should be a reasonable
#     setting for all linux kernel+glibc based systems.
PORTAGE_TMPFS="/dev/shm"
#
# FEATURES are settings that affect the functionality of portage. Most of
#     these settings are for developer use, but some are available to non-
#     developers as well.
#
#  'assume-digests'
#                when committing work to cvs with repoman(1), assume that all
#                existing SRC_URI digests are correct.  This feature also
#                affects digest generation via ebuild(1) and emerge(1) (emerge
#                generates digests only when the 'digest' feature is enabled).
#  'buildpkg'    causes binary packages to be created of all packages that
#                are being merged.
#  'ccache'      enable support for the dev-util/ccache package, which can
#                noticably decrease the time needed to remerge previously built
#                packages.
#  'confcache'   enable confcache support; speeds up autotool based configure
#                calls
#  'collision-protect'
#                prevents packages from overwriting files that are owned by
#                another package or by no package at all.
#  'cvs'         causes portage to enable all cvs features (commits, adds),
#                and to apply all USE flags in SRC_URI for digests -- for
#                developers only.
#  'digest'      autogenerate digests for packages when running the emerge(1)
#                command.  If the 'assume-digests' feature is also enabled then
#                existing SRC_URI digests will be reused whenever they are
#                available.
#  'distcc'      enables distcc support via CC.
#  'distlocks'   enables distfiles locking using fcntl or hardlinks. This
#                is enabled by default. Tools exist to help clean the locks
#                after crashes: /usr/lib/portage/bin/clean_locks.
#  'fixpackages' allows portage to fix binary packages that are stored in
#                PKGDIR. This can consume a lot of time. 'fixpackages' is
#                also a script that can be run at any given time to force
#                the same actions.
#  'gpg'         enables basic verification of Manifest files using gpg.
#                This features is UNDER DEVELOPMENT and reacts to features
#                of strict and severe. Heavy use of gpg sigs is coming.
#  'keeptemp'    prevents the clean phase from deleting the temp files ($T)
#                from a merge.
#  'keepwork'    prevents the clean phase from deleting the WORKDIR.
#  'test'        causes ebuilds to perform testing phases if they are capable
#                of it. Some packages support this automatically via makefiles.
#  'metadata-transfer'
#                automatically perform a metadata transfer when `emerge --sync`
#                is run.
#  'noauto'      causes ebuild to perform only the action requested and
#                not any other required actions like clean or unpack -- for
#                debugging purposes only.
#  'noclean'     prevents portage from removing the source and temporary files
#                after a merge -- for debugging purposes only.
#  'nostrip'     prevents the stripping of binaries.
#  'notitles'    disables xterm titlebar updates (which contain status info).
#  'parallel-fetch'
#                do fetching in parallel to compilation
#  'sandbox'     enables sandboxing when running emerge and ebuild.
#  'strict'      causes portage to react strongly to conditions that are
#                potentially dangerous, like missing/incorrect Manifest files.
#  'stricter'    causes portage to react strongly to conditions that may
#                conflict with system security provisions (for example
#                textrels, executable stacks).
#  'userfetch'   when portage is run as root, drop privileges to
#                portage:portage during the fetching of package sources.
#  'userpriv'    allows portage to drop root privileges while it is compiling,
#                as a security measure.  As a side effect this can remove
#                sandbox access violations for users.
#  'usersandbox' enables sandboxing while portage is running under userpriv.
FEATURES="sandbox userpriv usersandbox metadata-transfer parallel-fetch"
#FEATURES="sandbox ccache distcc distlocks"

# CCACHE_SIZE and CCACHE_DIR are used to control the behavior of ccache, and
#     and are only used if "ccache" is in FEATURES.
#
# CCACHE_SIZE sets the space limitations for ccache. The default size is
#     "2G", or 2 gigabytes.  Units are specified with 'G', 'M', or 'K'.
#
#CCACHE_SIZE="5G"
#
# CCACHE_DIR sets the ccache path.  If not specified, portage will default
#     to "${PORTAGE_TMPDIR}/ccache".
#
#     Note that to display ccache statistics outside of portage, you must
#     remember to give the correct path to the cache.
#
#        $ CCACHE_DIR=/var/tmp/ccache ccache -s

#                                        $PORT_LOGDIR is unset)
#                          mail_summary (like "mail" but sends all messages in
#                                        a single mail when emerge exits)
#                      To use elog you should enable at least one module
#PORTAGE_ELOG_SYSTEM="save mail"

# PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND: only used with the "custom" logging module. Specifies a command
#                      to process log messages. Two variables are expanded:
#                          ${PACKAGE} - expands to the cpv entry of the processed
#                                       package (see $PVR in ebuild(5))
#                          ${LOGFILE} - absolute path to the logfile
#                  Both variables have to be quoted with single quotes
#PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND="/path/to/logprocessor -p '\${PACKAGE}' -f '\${LOGFILE}'"

# PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI: this variable holds all important settings for the mail
#                       module. In most cases listing the recipient address and
#                       the receiving mailserver should be sufficient, but you can
#                       also use advanced settings like authentication or TLS. The
#                       full syntax is:
#                           address [[user:passwd@]mailserver[:port]]
#                       where
#                           address:    recipient address
#                           user:       username for smtp auth (defaults to none)
#                           passwd:     password for smtp auth (defaults to none)
#                           mailserver: smtp server that should be used to deliver the mail (defaults to localhost)
#                                       alternatively this can also be a the path to a sendmail binary if you don't want to use smtp
#                           port:       port to use on the given smtp server (defaults to 25, values > 100000 indicate that starttls should be used on (port-100000))
#                       Examples:
#PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI="root@localhost localhost" (this is also the default setting)
#PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI="user@some.domain mail.some.domain" (sends mails to user@some.domain using the mailserver mail.some.domain)
#PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILURI="user@some.domain user:secret@mail.some.domain:100465" (this is left uncommented as a reader exercise ;)

# PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILFROM: you can set the from-address of logmails with this variable,
#                        if unset mails are sent by "portage" (this default may fail
#                        in some environments).
#PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILFROM="portage@some.domain"

# PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILSUBJECT: template string to be used as subject for logmails. The following
#                           variables are expanded:
#                               ${PACKAGE} - see description of PORTAGE_ELOG_COMMAND
#                               ${HOST} - FQDN of the host portage is running on
#PORTAGE_ELOG_MAILSUBJECT="package \${PACKAGE} merged on \${HOST} with notice"
#source /usr/portage/local/layman/make.conf


grub.conf
Code:

#

You compiled support for EHCI, OHCI and UHCI into your kernel.
When I did that I had the same problem you described.

Since you seem to be running a AMD system I would get rid of support for UHCI.

Got rid of UHCI in the kernel. Boot up still stops at the same place. I did notice these lines before the usb initialisation.

kjournal starting: Commit interval 5 seconds
EXT3-fx: mounted filesystem with journal data mode
VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly device 8:8
Freeing unused kernel memory: 604k freed
Write protecting the kernal read-only data: 9096k
Warning: unable to start an initial console

The boot up stops about 10-15 lines after the above lines are printed.
Does the line Warning: unable to start an initial console mean anything?

Actually at this point your emerge --info is not required.

I see your lspci -v lacks info, that is: lspci -v

When used it shows what modules the kernel needs for your devices, and about USB Support It is required if youre planning to use your usb ports EHCI HCD (USB 2.0) support and UHCI HCD (most Intel and VIA) support and maybe OHCI HCD support if your system supports it

Thats right.

Now compile your kernel and dont forget to add the modules you got with lspci -v

A tip: to know which is which you have to select help buttom. Example:

[*] Kernel support for ELF binaries

<select> <exit> <help>

Then you get

CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF:
│ │
│ ELF (Executable and Linkable Format) is a format for libraries and │
│ executables used across different architectures and operating │
│ systems. Saying Y here will enable your kernel to run ELF binaries │
│ and enlarge it by about 13 KB. ELF support under Linux has now all │
│ but replaced the traditional Linux a.out formats (QMAGIC and ZMAGIC) │
│ because it is portable (this does *not* mean that you will be able │
│ to run executables from different architectures or operating systems │
│ however) and makes building run-time libraries very easy. Many new │
│ executables are distributed solely in ELF format. You definitely │
│ want to say Y here. │
│ │
│ Information about ELF is contained in the ELF HOWTO available from │
│ <http://www.tldp.org/docs.html#howto>. │
│ │
│ If you find that after upgrading from Linux kernel 1.2 and saying Y │
│ here, you still can't run any ELF binaries (they just crash), then │
│ you'll have to install the newest ELF runtime libraries, including │
│ ld.so (check the file <file:Documentation/Changes> for location and │
│ latest version). │
│ │
│ Symbol: BINFMT_ELF [=y] │
│ Prompt: Kernel support for ELF binaries │
│ Defined at fs/Kconfig.binfmt:1 │
│ Depends on: MMU && (BROKEN || !FRV) │
│ Location: │
│ -> Executable file formats / Emulations

I did that already. The only parts I didn't select were the edac, k8temp, shpchp, and sound. I didn't need those to boot. Everything else I have, and I'm still not able to boot.

As I recall from working on some very broken systems, if you cannot open the initial console, many things will fail to display, but the system is not dead. The Gentoo initscripts try to recover from this situation, but I do not know if they can recover in every case. How did you create the initial system? Did you deviate from the handbook in any way? What is in the /dev directory on the root filesystem of the hard drive?

ls
bin boot dev etc home lib lib32 lib64 lost+found media mnt opt proc root sbin sys tmp usr var
So yes, /dev is in the root filesystem. I built this system the same way I have been building gentoo systems for the last 9 yrs, and for the most part this method works. It's a combination of the handbook and a stage 3 by bob p. About the only thing I've been doing differently for the past couple of yrs. is I'm using a reduced USE variable set. Seems like too many USE variables messes up the system in an initial build.

VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem) readonly device 8:8
Freeing unused kernel memory: 604k freed
Write protecting the kernal read-only data: 9096k
Warning: unable to start an initial console

The boot up stops about 10-15 lines after the above lines are printed.
Does the line Warning: unable to start an initial console mean anything?

need to know the actual contents of /dev, not just if it exists.

Could it be something silly like udev not starting up? Maybe add console=/dev/tty1 on the grub command line?

During the install, did you do this before chrooting:

Code:
mount -o bind /dev /mnt/gentoo/dev


I'm taking blind guesses here. This just stinks of /dev not being populated.

Also, just for confirmation, post

Code:

stat /dev/sd*

I don't know what the above data shows, but I would like to know. Is there any documentation on how to read this?

I am still waiting for you to post the contents of /dev, so we can see if you have /dev/console. Just post find /dev -ls for simplicity.

You should simply use genkernel, and whe youre able to compile your kernel by yourself, do it.

I've never had to use genkernel, and I don't want to start now. Besides, genkernel requires you to use the gentoo boot disk and that gentoo boot disk doesn't recognise my keyboard. That's why I install using another distro to install gentoo. There must be something I'm missing. I just need a little help finding it.

I have your .config. Please also post the results of lspci -n, and cat /proc/cpuinfo as well as your /etc/fstab file, and I'll see what's happening with your kernel.

Thanks Pappy for responding.

I've reverted back to the 2.6.30-gentoo-r9 kernel with the same problem. My .config is here http://pastebin.com/m180ec0ac

/boot/grub/grub.conf
Code:

# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# noatime turns off atimes for increased performance (atimes normally aren't
# needed; notail increases performance of ReiserFS (at the expense of storage
# efficiency).  It's safe to drop the noatime options if you want and to
# switch between notail / tail freely.
#
# The root filesystem should have a pass number of either 0 or 1.
# All other filesystems should have a pass number of 0 or greater than 1.
#
# See the manpage fstab(5) for more information.
#

# <fs>         <mountpoint>   <type>      <opts>      <dump/pass>

# NOTE: If your BOOT partition is ReiserFS, add the notail option to opts.
