[gentoo-user] Problems installing

[Stewart Taylor <stewarta.taylor@btopenworld.com>]

Hi all

I've been trying to install Gentoo. I 
want to see if Gentoo is for me so I've 
kept it simple. My first attempt I tried 
a stage1 install, as this failed the 
second time I tried a stage3 install, if 
it failed less time wasted. Both times I 
opted for a genkernel install, 
everything seemed OK, no error messages 
and all stages completed. However both 
times when I get to 7.d ls /boot/kernel* 
/boot/initrd* I get the same result both 
times:
/boot/initrd*:no such file or directory
/boot/kernel-genkernel-x86-2.6.12-genkernel-r6

Taking the entry in the grub configure 
example as a guide I've searched for any 
initrd files just in case it's somewhere 
else the only entries are a couple of 
.gz files in /usr/man/man4 nothing else.

I could use some help to sort this out 
as I have no idea what to do.

TIA

Stewart
