 |
|
ls: cannot access /boot/initramfs*: no such file or directory,
and also a error with genkernel but only when it is doing the modules, i can access the log with nano but i do not know how to copy it to another drive to post here.
hardware:
gtx 460 (using as output though hdmi)
amd phenom II 3.2 ghz
I am using the x86 minimum iso and had no issue with portage or stage 3.
I followed the guide to a T
what do i do?
I figured it was nothing on the first go and completed and installed grub but revived a grub error 15, then i chroot back in and removed the init entry all togather, still rending gentoo being unbootable
now this is the second install and i stopped when the error happened again.
edit:I have the installer still opened just wanting on help |

ensure the boot partition is mounted, then run
| Code: | | genkernel --menuconfig all |
when menuconfig opens edit to: | Quote: | General setup --->
Kernel compression mode (Gzip) --->
[*] Initial RAM filesystem and RAM disk (initramfs/initrd) support
( ) Initramfs source file(s) #enter a space here in order to access the submenu
(0) User ID to map to 0 (user root) (NEW)
(0) Group ID to map to 0 (group root) (NEW)
Built-in initramfs compression mode (Gzip) ---> |
Then exit menuconfig saving the new configuration and allow genkernel to complete.
