Well, this is why you cannot boot. You do not have a kernel image in /boot. |

Are you actually _following_ the guide that you posted a link to |
11 |
originally, because you seem to have missed[1]: |

""" |
14 |
When the kernel has finished compiling, copy the kernel image to |
15 |
/boot. Use whatever name you feel is appropriate for your kernel |
16 |
choice and remember it as you will need it later on when you configure |
17 |
your bootloader. Remember to replace kernel-2.6.17-gentoo-r5 with the |
18 |
name and version of your kernel. |

No, this is normal. It is to allow people to use hd(X,Y)/boot/kernel, |
29 |
even if hd(X,Y) is the "/boto" filesystem. |

Yes, you need to compile and install a kernel. |

Top-posting[2] means that you are inserting your message above |
43 |
mine...and fully quoting my message. It means that if somebody wants |
44 |
to read this thread in the archives, they will have to read it |
45 |
starting at the bottom for it to make sense. It also means you are |
46 |
sending out a lot more text to the other subscribers on this list than |
47 |
you need to be, because you are sending my message in it's |
48 |
entirety...and the other subscribers have already received that. |
49 |
|
50 |
On this list, bottom-posting or interleaved replies is the normal |
51 |
format. So for yahoo, first delete out any parts of the quoted |
52 |
message that you are not responding to. Then insert your responses |
53 |
below. |
