However, I think it is better to use the actual paths of the files, So try specifying the paths without the /boot/ part. So your boot entry would look like: title Gentoo linux 2.6.17.-r7 kernel (hd0,0)/kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r7 root=/dev/hda2 > Restarted PC and entered chroot environment again.

So probably more like /usr/src/linux -> /usr/src/linux-2.6.17-gentoo-r7. This has nothing to do with booting however. > Would it be the result of previously running; > # grep -v rootfs /proc/mounts > /etc/fstab Um, yeah. -Richard PS: please stop top-posting. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
