I can't help with your problem, but it's odd that I had something similar |
10 |
happen the other day. I was making a fresh installation of Gentoo on an |
11 |
oldish dual-Opteron box, booting rescue-CD and using two SATA disks with md |
12 |
RAID and LVM2. I'd spent the whole afternoon on this, as many steps are |
13 |
involved, and I'd eventually reached the installation of GRUB into /boot, |
14 |
when I got an error saying that /boot was mounted read-only. On |
15 |
investigating, I found that everything I'd put on those two disks had |
16 |
disappeared, as though in a puff of smoke. All that was left was the |
17 |
underlying partition layout, but with no content. Vanished, without trace, |
18 |
just like your kernel tree. |

I'm mystified. Oh well, just start again. |

So I sympathise with you in your frustration. |
