I found; # ls -l /usr/src/linux lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 12 Oct 13 11:04 /usr/src/linux -> linux-2.6.17-gentoo-r7 there. But now it disppears. I don't know why?. Even I can't find the directory "src" after chroot. Another directory I failed to find was "modules". I ran; # find / -name src -type d and # find / -name modules -type d Both no printout and could not find it. Beside the command "env-update", emerge, etc. were not found on "bash". I think I have to run another round again wiping out the complete HD. Another thing, what did you mean "...Use whatever name you feel is appropriate for your kernel choice and remember it as you will need it later on when you configure your bootloader. Remember to replace kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r5 with the name and version of your kernel." I used "kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r7" previously. Tks. B.R. SL -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
