Looks like I've come with a different situation now: |
2 |
|
3 |
I installed Ubuntu in a different partition, it works fine. |
4 |
I took it's kernel's config and tried to recompile gentoo's with it. |
5 |
|
6 |
Things are a little better now, but looks like it cannot find /dev/hda2 |
7 |
(my root partition) nor /dev/sda2. Since no root can be found, it cannot |
8 |
boot, and remains asking for the root password. If I log in, I cannot |
9 |
access my files in any way. I don't know why. |
10 |
|
11 |
On the other hand, I also tried to boot Gentoo using Ubuntu's kernel by |
12 |
setting root=/dev/sda2 (Gentoo's root partition) instead of |
13 |
root=/dev/sda3 (Ubuntu's). It goes perfectly (it even mounts the root |
14 |
partition), but stops after trying to remount proc (it cannot be mounted |
15 |
because it has already been mounted) since it's considered a critical task. |
16 |
|
17 |
Any ideas? |
18 |
|
19 |
Shall I send the new kernel config as well? |
20 |
|
21 |
btw, is there any web site with a huge database with config files or |
22 |
parts of them for different hardware, distributions (if applicable), and |
23 |
kernels? (I already did my homework trying to find it) If not, I think |
24 |
that would be a great idea. |
