Since I have an ATI graphics card, I used the configuration parameters as per: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_ATI_Drivers All other kernel configuration parameters were left at the default (I think). I decided to use GRUB. My grub.conf looks like this: ********** default 0 timeout 30 splashimage=(hd0,0)/grub/splash.xpm.gz title=Gentoo Linux 2.6.12-r6 root (hd0,0) kernel /kernel-2.6.12-gentoo-r6 root=/dev/hda3 ********** So, when I restart, everything looks allright. Grub asks me to choose Gentoo Linux 2.6.12-r6, which I do. I can then login fine. But when I try to run the emerge command, I get: emerge: command not found (no surprise, it's not in /bin). So, I went back to the installation CD, chrooted back into my installation environment, and did "emerge portage". The emerge portage claimed to work, but when I rebooted again without the CD, I still get the same message. (PS the adduser command described in the installation docs, http://www.gentoo.org/doc/en/handbook/2005.1/handbook-x86.xml?part=1&chap=11 is missing as well) Have I missed a step?
