I had no particular problems with any of the build instructions. To build the kernel I used 'genkernel all' as an experiment. The boot loader is grub. I set almost nothing by hand in my make.conf file. I have no USE flags. I had no obvious problems following the install guide other than the machine didn't work. (!!!) ;-) When I boot the VM it appears to find the kernel and the initramfs, carries on for a few seconds and stops at Run /init as init process where the boot process just hangs. In top on the host I see Virtualbox spinning 1 CPU core at 100%. QUESTIONS: 1) Anything obvious I should go back and check about the build? I've remounted everything and chroot'ed in. 2) Because it says "Run /init" and not "Run /sbin/init" this problem is, I assume, happening in the initramfs? I assume so as I don't see the drives getting mounted, nor any messages about not finding the drives, etc. I know very little about the details of the init process really. (So I'll get to learn! Cool!) 3) Generically looking at a number of boot logs on the net it appears the next thing it would have done would be to run udev and then start mounting disks? Am I stuck in a bad initramfs or did I miss something about udev?
