oops, another mangle occurred. |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
|

The entry: |
| 6 |
|
| 7 |
|
| 8 |
"kernel /kernel-2.6.13-gentoo-r3 root=/dev/ram0 init=/linuxrc ramdisk=8192 |
| 9 |
real_root=/dev/hda3 udev" |
| 10 |
|
| 11 |
|
| 12 |
in grub.conf should be on one line -- sorry -- |
| 13 |
I see that it was split into two lines at the space between 8192 and |
| 14 |
real_root when it came back to me through the mail list handler and my mail |
| 15 |
client. Probably happened to you also. As " real_root=/dev/hda3 udev " are |
| 16 |
kernel arguments they need to be on the same line as "kernel". |
| 17 |
This should solve the first problem. |
| 18 |
Make the change above to grub.conf . |
| 19 |
Reboot. |
| 20 |
|
| 21 |
I think the second problem is not related to the first. There is |
| 22 |
probably a problem with the network settings. Page 40 to 46 of the amd64 |
| 23 |
gentoo handbook are a good start on the networking problem. Short summary |
| 24 |
follows. My best guess is that adding dhcpcd to rc is necessary and not |
| 25 |
documented. |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
May I suggest (presuming your intent was to have the network mount |
| 28 |
automatically and you connect via ethernet): |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Run the command: |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
dir /sbin/dh* |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
If the response is "/sbin/dhcpcd" then the dhcp client demon is installed. |
| 35 |
If "No such file or directory" error occurs, dhcpcd needs to be emerged. |
| 36 |
(Or |
| 37 |
you wanted to use some other dhcp client.) |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Run the command: (modified if you wanted to use and have emerged some other |
| 40 |
dhcp client.) |
| 41 |
|
| 42 |
rc-update add dhcpcd default |
| 43 |
|
| 44 |
nano -w /etc/conf.d/hostname |
| 45 |
and |
| 46 |
(Set the HOSTNAME variable to your hostname) |
| 47 |
HOSTNAME="yourcomputername" |
| 48 |
|
| 49 |
nano -w /etc/conf.d/domainname |
| 50 |
|
| 51 |
(Set the DNSDOMAIN variable to your domain name) |
| 52 |
DNSDOMAIN="yourhomenetworkname" |
| 53 |
|
| 54 |
rc-update add domainname default |
| 55 |
|
| 56 |
nano -w /etc/conf.d/net |
| 57 |
(should be blank or all lines commented) |
| 58 |
|
| 59 |
rc-update add net.eth0 default |
| 60 |
|
| 61 |
/etc/init.d/net.eth0 start |
| 62 |
|
