I was able to configure and compile the kernel and configure a working Gentoo system that gives me no errors at boot :-) I am not sure what went wrong the first time. I selected the same basic driver support within the kernel as the first time, except I didn't bother with some of the other bells and whistles I first had in there. Perhaps now that I have a working system, I can play with the kernel and see what works, since I can always fall back onto a working kernel and still have a running system. I'm glad this is solved because I was getting really annoyed at myself here... Thanks to everyone who chimed in! -Denis -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
